Yup. I am the same way. I do a lot of research and see what I want. Looking at safety and reliability stuff, reviews etc. I normally narrow down to 2 or 3 different, but technically and technologically similar vehicles. In this case 4. I was between the 540i X Drive, M340i X Drive , the Audi A-6 55, and Audi S-4. All of them 6 cylinder. Narrowed down to the 540i X-Drive and the A-6 55, and test drove both. That's where I was sold on the 540. Then it came down to options. Eventually the only thing I didn't want was the Skylounge roof, and I could care less about the glass controls. It took me several weeks of research and a trip to CA to test drive while visiting the Granddaughter. So There you have it. Of course my wife thinks it is a knee jerk reaction and I am shooting from the hip. Because I didn't say anything until the test drive part other than "I'm thinking of getting a new car." 6 months later I test drive cars and we go home and I start building. Lol. She is like "Why did you not talk to me about it the whole time?" And My response was " You don't care about cars like that. You look and say Oh Pretty. Or I don't like that one." When I decide on a car it is never a knee jerk reaction. I plan on what I want to drive for the next 10 years, and make sure that is the one I want.
