Looking to dump my CL for something with backdoors, any suggestions?
I'm married now with a newborn and I'm looking for something bigger(BUT NOT an SUV). I already have a weekend racer 93civic B16B1 custom turbo/nitrous.runs high 10s. Anyway, I like the looks of the Caddilac SRX w Northstar, Lincoln Blackwood and thats about it, My wifes got an 03 Passat 4motion. even that seems a little small for the seat and stroller plus groceries. Any suggestions would help. Oh as for price 60K is as high as I wanna go.

I'd also recommend the TL, but if you're looking for something bigger how about the Toyota Avalon? I haven't been inside the new Avalon yet, but my mom's old '96 Avalon is extremely roomy. The older Acura RLs while boring are also very roomy and very very reliable, you can probably snag an '04 sitting on the lot for real cheap I know the '04s were being pretty heavily discounted even before the '05 came out. The new RL is about the same space wise as the TL though.
At $60k you could also consider the Lexus LS430 which is a really nice car, and spacious but I dont know if you'd want something so luxurious with a kid.

I was thinking of getting a 3rd car since I just got married not too long ago and we're thinking of starting a family. We were gonna go the minivan route and I looked at the new Odyssey. Very nice....but to save a little money, I was thinking of the Accord sedan. Fairly inexpensive and reliable.

If you are interested I know of a 2001 EVO
that is a JDM model(actually stronger then that 300+ HP). It was used for EPA testing and the owner only wants $20K. PM if interested. But never the less many good choices out there: 2004 or 05 CTS-V
