:yawn:

That's actually pretty awesome.

Pontiac Vibe GT, Impala SS (b-body of course), or a Mazda Protege5 would have been my choices.

Was going to use the money for a down payment on a new Mustang Mach I. Much better for insurance, gas and the kid to get the box.

id still be on my seafoam green Vespa ET2. gotta love 65 mpg

Mercedes ML class suv.

I'm feeling the 05 Pathfinders, very nice.

I most likely would have gone with a Mazda3 5 door, but I also seriously considered a Subaru Forester or a Honda CR-V or Element.

I'd still be driving the rare 03 Altima...

G35 or an RX8

I actually saw an xB at the Subaru dealer after I test drove it. I was about to buy a black WRX, but I sat in the xB and fell in love... of course, my xB is black too. :P

Toyota Matrix or Pontiac Vibe ( they're identicle)

I was seriously considering importing one of these from Europe. They are AWESOME and would have cost about the same (used AMG vs new Scion...)

too bad it's a hideous mercedes crap , just wait till u can't get parts and you have to maintanence it. to each their own. must be nice to have money.

If not a tc, the new 04 Accord Coupe.

I'd be driving a CRV. I considered an Element but the CRV was a much better vehicle.

keep my crx if insurance wasn't an issue srt 4 neon.

Subaru WRX STI

I have a baby with limited budget. They are not many choices out there. The box won over Element by less $$$, better mpg, and VSC. For the next car, either the Element or Odyssey. I need roooooom.

This is actually an interesting topic for me, as I'm leaning towards a xB but haven't bought it yet. The other vehicles I want to look at include the Chrysler PT Cruiser, Toyota Matrix, Ford Focus ZX5 or ZXW, and I might wait to see the upcoming Mazda5, as well as look at the Mazda6 i 5-door or Mazda3 5-door.

This will be a second car primarily for commuting to work (my wife's about to get a Sienna), but I need the ability to pick up my wife and kids: two toddlers five and three years old, and an upcoming new baby later this year. That's why the Element isn't on the list, as it only seats four and we're going to be five soon.
