Car List: Revised

After a trip to Annapolis this evening to pick up Kate’s car from having its hood closure repaired (stupid latches!) I have whittled down my car list a bit more. Basically, I saw a 1 Series and realized that this little BMW is too, well, little. There is just NO ROOM behind the driver’s seat, and since I’m the kind of driver that needs lots of leg room, this will always be the case. I mean, the bottom cushion is literally touching the back of the front seat. I think this is called a “luggage shelf” and for practical purposes, it’s a three passenger car. Not gonna work. 🙁 Cute as all hell in person, though.

The updated list:

Japan

  • 2009 Acura TSX – $29,570 (Jalopnik calls it boring…may have to drive.)
  • 2008 Honda Accord EX-L Sedan – $29,517 (Too common.)
  • 2008 Nissan Altima 2.5 SE Coupe – $31,395

Germany

  • 2009 BMW 128i Coupe – $32,385 (Saw it today…too small!)
  • 2009 Audi A3 2.0T – $31,860
  • 2009 Audi A4 2.0T – $32,175 (I hope we get the new body style by next year.)
  • 2009 Volkswagen Passat Komfort – $29,647 (Still in the running.)
