I drive a very sensible 2007 Honda Jazz 1.4 with a real smooth CVT. Not an exciting car to drive in the sporty sense, but it's a very easy, soothing driving experience.
Confirmed by the kids who fall asleep in the back seats all the time.
Had almost exactly the same car before, from the same batch as the license plates are only 4 numbers apart :P we were so happy with it that we just got the same one after the Mrs. ran it into a tow truck...
This one has the added upgrade of a cruise control, so no shifting, no revving, and not even having to use my feet on the highway, that's very easy driving for what's basically a compact hatchback.
The garage we bought it from fitted some very weird feeling wobbly tyres though... Kind of negates the kart-like handling it's supposed to have.
I tried the semi-automatic one and it was horrible. I don't want a car to shift gears for me, I want it to not shift gears at all!
I'd also be fine going back to a stick shift when this one breaks down, it's just that we had the previous one for only 3 months...

This thread makes me miss my RX8 :(
Had for 12 months many years ago, loved it. Very tail happy in the damp :-) Cost me a fortune in running costs and fuel though.

And for me... A noisy polluting 6.2 chevy van ;)
Oh how I miss that old girl. Not my girlfriend, she is still here and she still got that Mii thing.
No I'm talking about my old Chevy
She's been replacest with a Ford mondeo, but soon a Ford S max will take it's place, coz I need that extra space for my fishing equipment

It's always been Saab for me, my parents worked at the plant in Trollhättan.
A 1991 Saab 9000 CD and in the summer a 1976 Saab 99 Combi Coupé.

I traded my Alfa 159 3.2V6 Stupido in for a 900cc Renault Clio last year, because I was driving 160kms a day to the office and back, and wanted to cut the fuel bill.
The trade went through a day before lockdown so I may as well have kept the Alfa as my driveway paperweight, as it was prettier.
But I love driving the Clio.

You should maybe sign the rear end of your 9000, Karlsson, or better still., Jakobsson.
I do like a late the 99 and 900 Turbo + the later 9-3 Viggen

Was that car what you were driving when I went to yours in 2011 before the Riga flight?

2014 Renault Captur. Honestly one of the most reliable cars I've ever had. Was forced to buy it by my lady, but now happy we did.
When the daughter is grown up, I fancy a Tesla. But by the time I can afford one, they will probably be flying cars.

2010 Mercedes E350 Coupe "125th anniversary edition"
The latter is the only way i can make it sound slightly interesting. For a 2010 car it has some very modern features, adaptive cruise / reverse camera / automatic full beams
But in all honesty it's dull and I cant wait to get my next car. I'm looking at either a BMW M6 or Aston Martin V8 Vantage next, quite an upgrade!

A 2018 Skoda Superb.
Not really a sexy car but just had to be a car with a decent trunk for the dog(s) :-).
