Thank you! Others had already implied that it's typical for a German to be so methodical. Could be that is true - or it's just an annoying character trait as well! In any case I've made the experience that I get more satisfaction out of things if I do them right, and that means investing some time in research and reflexion.

It certainly is. And much is yet to come!

I can't count the comments any more who tell me that I should have gotten an M3, Porsche or whatnot. But I don't want to! I'm happy with an understated car with loads of power and torque, and I'll keep it for at least 5-6 years, so for me the investment is quite long-time and therefore worth it, as it provides me with incomparable driving pleasure.
