Another test drive weekend behind us. This time it was Peugeot's 207 and Toyotas (Yaris & iQ).

It will be interesting to hear what Esa has to say when he gets back home tonight. He and his brother are taking Esa's fave car for a test drive together. Who knows, we might have a car tonight!

And if that's so, it will be a Toyota. It already has a parking lot waiting... Grin

Well I love the V8/V10 cig lighter thing and really would like to have one but as far as a real car I would go with a classic Porsche. They really do not cost that much up front and also they go up in value instead of down so not a bad investment as well and right now there are some great deals out there this one cost me 13k and looks brand new.

Matt, you have great taste!

Joe and I just bought a Hyndai Sonata over the weekend. I love it. Pay attention to what someone else said about 4-doors. There have been many of us that have had to sell our beloved 2-door coupes to make way for babyseats in the back!!! It is impossible to lean over a 2-door to get the seat in the back, let alone put the baby in!

In fact our reason for getting a new car was so we could give my Camry (which is an awesome car by the way) to Jeanette and Sean.... We'll be selling her Honda Civic. It's our way of helping along the process of eliminating obstacales for them..... so maybe we'll have a baby in the back some day! Cool

Treat people with kind words.

Reply #28 - Oct 14^th, 2010 at 7:57am I hear that a 4-door Toyota Yaris will be on its way to our parking lot this evening. The color is metallic blue and Esa fell in like with this one at this morning's test drive. Can't wait to see the car myself! And, the rumor is that this one does have enough space for a stroller... So we can keep it for years to come. Sanna

Your choice of Toyota or Honda is also good.

For daily driving it is a Subaru WRX...excellent for our Canadian winters and somewhat engaging to drive. The base Subaru Impreza is inexpensive and is a very reliable car too.

Wifey's daily is a Kia Soul....Kia and Hyundai have really stepped up their game and are building world class reliable cars.

When he hits midlife and his "crisis" kicks into high gear you should pray he is not as car crazy as I...I turned into a hard core enthusiast collector of unique and rare autos...a great hobby for sure...which drives my wife nuts...picked up another collector car this week:)

Thank you. I hope so, too.

We had a blast this weekend when we took our car for a first grocery store trip. Wink

Paul,
Right now I find it hard to believe that Esa would turn car crazy, but who knows? I didn't think we'd have a car now couple months ago, so things can change.

But I do know that the car fever has travelled from our house to my cousins'; her husband is now having acute car fever. Their first child is due to born in November, which probably explains it, too. Wink
