Lenie, why should you have the only bad-boy ride in the family with your wide-track Pontiac excitement machine? Queue it up at 1:10 sec mark if you can stand a little competition.

Default VW Jetta TDI

Rides well, the overall driving feeling is tight like a little BMW. Mine gets 40_mpg in hwy/city combined driving. Tons of room for stuff in the back. The motor will run for a couple hundred thousand mi if you change the oil when you should. If you get a pre 09 there are way less emissions. You have to get a 2010+ to get a wagon which is my preference.

Now if gas milage doesn't matter and you want a more performance car what about a Subaru STI or Lancer EVO? Does your wife want a rice rocket?

Hey Lenie did you ever pick a vehicle? I've been considering picking up something myself. Tired of all the old rattling piles of **** I've had and am ready for something newer. Are there any daily driver track ready vehicles out there like the WRX or EVOs? Id like to grab something I can drive to work and play with.

I test drove the AMG..

It is a German Muscle Car.

Those would be my three choices to look at ,but not for this Thread.

I just picked up for the Wife, a 2009 Sport/Touring 370Z with 6000 miles on it, for 33K out the door with a Warranty..For her DD..

Not really practical for a family.. But slightly used with very low miles, i think you will find something you like..Just maybe not brand new.

But I must be crazy, but the Brutal Power or the AMG was intoxicating....

Wants...Needs.....Now you got me all crazy..
