Re: if you were married and had kids, what do you think you would be driving?

The Honda Odessey is like the best minivan out there. 28 mpg, and it goes to 60 in less than 7.5 seconds, and can do a mid to high 15 sec 1/4 mile. Not good for a sports car, but excellent for a stock minivan.

I drove a fellow Subaru owner's nicely massaged '05 Legacy 2.5GT 5-speed last night. The owner said it was dyno'd recently and is putting down about 270hp/280tq at the wheels. Very plush. Would make a great family car, even when your family is in a bit of a hurry!

Subaru Legacy 3.0. Failing that I'd take an Audi S4.

270whp? I'm assuming the car is stock? Those are nice cars....

whatevers average in your area i guess, like what the majority of people make. i gave two examples of trucks, which are in the 25k-30k range. most people in my area seem to have cars that are in the 25-35k range. for how many kids, i guess the number of kids you think you ll have. i think that ill have two kids.

Re: if you were married and had kids, what do you think you would be driving?

If I were on what I consider an average Income (About NZ$75-100k a year) and had 3 kids, then it'd have to be a Honda Accord V6 Mugen, either that or a Peugeot 407 2.2 Sport.

If I was on what most NZers consider an average income, then a 1994-1995 Honda Accord EXi-S or a a later VTi-S manual.

I would have the car that I just bought, 97' Mitsubishi Diamante. Or a E34 BMW 540i if I could find one in nice condition with low k's.
