For car enthusiasts, "Mustachian Car" and "Dream Car" are more or less antonyms.
We'll justify, prevaricate, come up with all kinds of inventive rationalizations. But we have a Porsche, Corvette, WRX, NSX, BMW, Mustang, T-bird, something in the garage with boxes of spare parts and gallons of specialty fluids, likely emitting more pollution sitting still than a modern/unmodified car does while running.... often while our truly Mustachian car sits in the weather.
Mustachian car: Minimize cost per mile, so probably something compact, Japanses, and 10yrs old.
Dream car: Maximize smiles/mile, so probably many cylinders (or many watts), fat tires, and burly American history or refined Euro sensibilities.
We recently bought a 2yr old Fiat 500 Abarth as the half-a$$ed Mustachian attempt. It had depreciated like a stone (over 50% in 2yrs), is surprisingly reliable, and gets 35mpg on 87octane with a light foot. It also makes us giggle like kids. Honda Fits do not give us giggle fits.
