I liked the get up of the Grand Am but nowhere near enough to buy one, in fact I am spending big bucks making a much faster SS. I would hope that ar 27 you aren't older now, because what the hell is going to happen to you when you are say, 47? Just something to think about. Oh yeah, 27 was when my first daughter was born.
Good point! I can certainly understand that. We're trying to have kids now and here I am at 27.. ah well.

I am married with one kid. Give her the cobalt ss and buy you something new or buy her the Grand Am. I have always had two doors. It sucks until the kid can walk in and out of the car himself but it is worth it to me.

My uncle is having lots of problems with this car. Looks, performs nice, and is big enough for him with 1 kid though. If you're not looking for quite the performance car check out the Mazda 6s. I hate to go foreign but they are really nice. You could dump some money and get is zippy enough too.

I feel the need to plug VW as well the the Equinox. Some people your age that I know are in Touaregs.. HUGE cargo space.. G6's, The new A4's are great too.

My Jetta is only 1 inch shorter than the Passat. HUGE trunk space.

I dont wanna think about getting family cars.
