I bought a new car Saturday. Sunday, my old car decided to throw a small tantrum and turn on the check engine light, while cutting acceleration at about 4000RPM. I thing the old girl is jealous of the new one.
Whatever. I don´t regret. The new one is electric, with lane keeping, adaptive cruise control, incredible internal design, all for R$150k (about $30k in real money)...
It's my first car that is more expensive than my gaming PC...

@nerdeiro Congrats on the new wheels! Out of interest what did you purchase? I'm in a similar position where I think my current car is running out of time and it's time to pick up something new...

@PossiblyMax I got a Chinese GWM Ora O3. https://gwm-eu.com/bg/en/ora03.html
Spec wise it's pretty similar to the BYD Dolphin. The deciding factor was the better autonomy and the beautiful retro design of the interior.

@nerdeiro Ah that's a cute car, very nice! I had looked over the dolphin previously but I ended up deciding it probably wasn't going to work for us, our kids are needing a fair bit of legroom these days, and it's probably going to get worse before it gets better 🤣
The hunt continues!
