Default Yep, I drove a '02 Porsche 911 while my S4 was getting it's 5k service

The quote of the test drive was when I asked the cute saleswoman "do you mind that I'm going one hundred and ten miles per hour?"

That was a fun day

Also test drove the Suby 2.5RS when I was looking to get an A4 - my buddy liked it, so we both checked it out, but I never had any intent on getting it. He ended up buying the exact same A4 as I had, minus the sideguard airbags

Also test drove a new MR2, for a different friend because he hadn't driven stick in the longest time.

Then way back, I test drove a used Ford Probe GT

No, but I've bought cars with no intention of keeping them. 8^)

Several times a year - it's a good way to learn about cars and what you like/don't like.

Bad financial habit in my state (MA); we get hit with 5 % sales tax every time we buy a car.
