I agree with what you say in a way but I get the impression that perhaps in Texas there's a bit more space than where I live(!). I see little point in buying vehicles that are faster than a 240D where I live - it just adds to the frustration when sitting in traffic that you could in principle go so much quicker if only they'd all get out of the sodding way. The traffic is so bad here that I just go for something with character rather than something that could theoretically get me there quicker.
