I'm not sure about you, but my fiance' could care less what car she was driving as long as it was reliabile, which means it could be a civic or a bmw, and she'd care none the less, as i recal new civics are normally cheaper than reliable bmw's (if those two words can go together).

And somehow, my parents managed to put me through college and neither of them are making 6 figures...akward.
