A light thread which will bring us nice conversation...

When I finally settle down in Mia,I will certainly buy a new Ford Expedition XL & perhaps a used Chrysler Sebring cabrio...the only 2+2 cabrio in the market...

Miami is....made for open-top cars...

Been a big fan of european cars. Been in and out of the "tuner" scene with Toyota Supras, Nissan 240sx, Audi A4, BMW 325is, Honda CRX-Si, couple others.

Probably going to buy a Porsche once I strike it big time - not going to happen anytime soon

Besides for Jeep I think American cars are terrible.
I am a big German Car fan.
I have a 2004 V8 Touareg for a few years and WOW what a SUV! Best SUV on the market IMO it really is something. I could never pick one car so if I could get any 5 cars they would be.
Touareg 2 V10TDI
Audi S6
CLK-63AMG
G550
BMW M6
Now that would be a line up! As for cars I am actually thinking of getting in a year or two the 2011 Jeep Cherokee looks great or a 1 year old Touareg.

I had a Jeep Wrangler, which I loved and drove until it fell apart. I now have an Infiniti G35 (it was my husband's idea...total guy car), but will sell it when we move to Texas in the summer...I didn't see a single G35 in San Antonio when I was there last month...not one! We'll be getting the requisite Texas pickup truck...or maybe another Jeep!

Most full size cabrios are advertised as "2+ 2",meaning 2 seats up front & 2 "compact " at the back..

In reality,only Sebring offers 2 seats in the back which can accomodate ...average height people,say up to 5'9...

Miami is for cabrios,for open top roadsters etc... An antique Cadillac Eldorado,like the one blown away in "the Specialists " is fine...

I object for Tuareg.It suffers from euro..small-d*cking...little interior space...

Better with an Expedition (if not the XL)...

If u want glamour,the new Lexus Rh hybrid ,with co-driver's knees airbag...is super...

Wouldn't be buying the Lexus unless you want your accelerator pedal stuck to the floor which = death

The space in the back is not great but the Expedition and Touareg are two different cars that cant be compared. The Touareg is a highly engineered German machine that is as good off road as most Jeeps, Land Rovers and any other american SUV yet can hit speeds of 140mph with no problems. It is a 5 passenger car not a 7-8 how ever many the Expedition can put in. If you want space and lots of seat the Expedition wins out right.
If you want a SUV that handles like a Car sports car on the highway and a Land Rover off road the Touareg is the winner.

So...add another 10K & get one of the most beautiful SUvs around,the Porsche Cayenne...

As for the Lexus,guys let us be fair,some Toyota models have that problem,no Lexus ( yet...).

Not to mention that the..drug lords in Miami Vice (movie) go to the SoBe disco riding ...Range Rovers,The Queen of the Road...
