My car is famous! Well, subject of a blog anyway!

The leasing broker we use asked if they could use my car as the subject for one of their blogs.

You know, when I see your right sided drivers seat, I lose all desire to own that bimmer. Suddenly, in seeing the right hand version of our car, I lose all of my urges to own a nice car. At that point, driving becomes purely utilitarian.

Does anyone else feel this way?

I think that because you are not used to drive one right side since US car drives on the left side. however, when you try to drive on the right side it should be fine but you will slightly drives to the left. that is what I felt when for the first time, I drive on the left side. I am used to it right now, just need to adapt for a while if i want to drive on the right side again.

Yeah. I just wondered if there is some psychological trick going on.

I feel the same about a left hand drive! Lol

It's all about what you're use to I guess.
