I thought of a VW TDI especailly with gas prices but I would consider a different color besides red though. I owned a red car one time but the color was a real pain to take care of especailly when it started to oxidize after a few years. If I buy new, I go with white since it won’t show oxidation and it stays cool in the Summer.
I owned a red 2000 Golf for 10 years. It was never garaged, and there was no paint fade whatsoever.
