My summer tires are on silver rims that have a ton of scratches and dings on them at this point, and my solution was just matte black plasti dip. Costs relatively little and you don't have to buy a new set of rims if you want a different colour.

If you didn't want to talk about cars, why did you come in here talking about cars?

Straw men are really frustrating. Moreover, I'd point out that calling me a "complete idiot" is pretty obviously against the forum rules.
If the quoted is really how you want to address what I posted, especially after I explained what I meant in perfectly plain language, you're not engaging in this discussion in good faith or you're not capable of understanding simple concepts when they're explained to you. I'm not sure which I should assume in order to give you the benefit of the doubt.
Just to reiterate: the comparison to the Infinitis was to give examples of daily drivers that I'd rather drive than a Mustang, the point being that if you're buying a car as a toy, it should be more fun to drive than your daily driver; otherwise, what's the point. I emphasized that this was a "to each their own" situation, and if you like the Mustang, good on you. The RS6 was a response to the notion that RWD was somehow a necessity for a fun-driving car, being a hyperbolic counter-example. Another offhand comment that you have managed to drag out at length.
You did not proceed to "talk about cars", so much as argue that my opinion as to how enjoyable the car you've selected feels to drive is wrong, and based somehow on me driving it wrong, at which point I noted that this was simply not the car for me and there was no need to get defensive.
I'm not sure what sort of personality quirk causes someone to behave the way you are here... this should not have required an argument; just "different strokes" should have done the trick. Hopefully it does so now.
