RufMD makes an important distinction: daily-appropriate fun car vs daily-kid hauler-snow machine-(kind of)fun car.
If I could get my wife to drive the latter, I could log more time in the former.
Since we kind of doubled-up on the kid-hauler, snow friendly mobiles, maybe an R8 Spyder isn't so impractical after all....
I'll let you know how my sales pitch goes over with my wife.
edit.. that was quick. Me: 'maybe we could do without the X5'. Her: 'what would you drive? Me: 'maybe a 'car'...maybe something like an R8'. Her: 'that's absurd...we (read you) really need an SUV....don't you have enough cars'?
That didn't go how I thought - LOL.

Well it depends how you define daily driver. For me, it's a vehicle you log tons of miles on going back and forth to work or doing routine trips for daily stuff...something fun to log the miles yet do it in a stylish and cost effective way compared to something uber exotic. As far as golf or groceries, not going to work
If you didn't own 45 others
. You owned one car. Just play along lol. Would you buy an r8?
I always assume a DD to be large enough to do anything you want whenever you want. No restrictions. So it wouldn't fit for me. As you are like me in the I love my family department, I have one question.
Who do you leave at home when you drive the r8?

Idk, if we are talking about an suv here, why not, get a Cayenne S w/ as many options as you can while staying under $100k. God those Porsches sure get expensive fast w/ options, you can easily make a car cost 2x the base price of any model.
