What Kind of Car Do You Prefer? (manual transmission, convertible, SUV)

Here is my car

I like to have a sport sedan. Haul the family, and when you drop them off, haul ass.

SUV/crossover are not in the same category in my opinion. I love SUV's but would never drive a crossover.

That is what I like. That and 4-door sedans.

It depends on the car.

Here's a third (unrecordable) vote for a nice, big, sporty station wagon. Two examples:

Mercedes-Benz E Class Wagon - there is a AMG model due here that will do 0-60 under 4 secs. with AWD

2013 CTS Sport Wagon | Cadillac - they have one based on Corvette RWD running gear but not AWD

Audi makes a beauty in the AWD A6/S6 Avant (wagon) but in their brilliant(?) marketing plan keeps it in Europe where it sells very well...they think the US is only SUV or small wagon country and push the smaller A4 based 'Allroad' model which is a wanna be SUV ... positioned in the narrow space between a crossover and an SUV...sorta like the Subaru Outback.

Since car people need more than one car, a sport(y) sedan would be my second choice (but I didn't vote for it...the poll should allow more than 1 vote maybe).

When I was younger it was/would have been a coupe...and a few years before that a convertible...oh, and I'll add that a BIG '5 door' (hatchback...) can be a great body style that combines the wagon and sedan attributes...the old Saab 9000 was such a car. ..also a pleasant memory.

I think someone upthread said 'it depends on the car' and also where it fits in your stable...and sadly, budget matters too .

MB makes the R class and BMW has the 3-wagon, but honestly how many do you see on the roads? Not enough to bring it here in my opinion.

and Why???

Why didn't you include wagons, like the Subaru Outback or Volvo XC70?

That's what I would have voted for, a wagon.

V8, rear wheel drive coupe.

I really think the best for me would be a practical car, with lots of headroom, adjustable seats, plenty of cargo space, good air conditioning, an engine that is good on gas, a car that is easy to park and environmentally friendly.

But what I really want is a Z06 Corvette.

Screw those wimpy little buggies.

Hatchback. Practicality & they look great!
