I was nearly rear-ended at a stop sign the last time I drove my SE-R (by, as expected, a young dude who wasn't paying attention because he was gazing into his phone or whatever). If that had happened it would have obviously totalled the car and, I would have
 been very sad for it, but would have eventually gotten over it. Then I would have been able to immediately start seriously shopping for a non-boring replacement for my boring appliance car. but I just can't bear to get rid of the SE-R!</p>

 all-seasons for the rain traction and grip. And if it is cold but not yet snowy, I'd rather leave normal tires on, but summer tires are terrible in cold weather. I still remember sliding through a red light in Detroit at 15mph because I couldn't stop due to
 being on a thin coat of snow on summer tires on the car I was driving.</span></p>
