Same. The only other car I've ever owned is a 2012 Mazda 3. I'm from Australia in an area with good public transport, and so I didn't drive until I was 26 and living in the USA. Bought the Mazda 3 second hand for a pretty good price. The iX was a big upgrade!
Ive still got the Mazda, but when it stops working, I want to replace it with a small, sporty EV. I'm kinda sad we don't have Chinese EVs in the USA, since cars like the MG Cyberster look pretty nice, don't really have a US-made alternative, and are good value for the price (in Australia, it's the equivalent of around US$72,000 including all taxes and fees). The range of cars is relatively limited (and expensive) in the USA.
