    I wouldn't buy any BMW so my dog could tear up/piss/shit in it, but that's me. Sounds like that's perfect for the Honda, keep it.

      seriously, read your first post as though you didn't write it and think about it for a minute ha, you made a pretty strong case to keep the economical and reliable car.
      what he said.

      I was in your shoes, and sold her infiniti for an e39 525 manual to get rid of a car payment. And its a great car, but not for a woman.,....
      Id compare these two cars in question to rubbermaid and fine china...
      You can easily guess which car falls into which category...

      Ill be buying her a japanese SUV of some sort in the near future.
      Keep your car. Or if you want, we can trade cars. ;)

          How long have you been married? You should know by now that the wife always "gets" what she wants. Keep the peace!

            I have to say stick with the Honda option - you know them well enough from ownership experiences. Maybe trade up to a slightly newer model or at least find one with a manual gearbox. They still offer them in the late model Accord, right?

              They do! And I hear it puts down like 265hp...

              I have no problems with its speed. I used to set the cruise control between 100-110 MPH in Germany. No lie.

                Keep the honda.

                if needing more cargo capacity - get one of those near 300hp dodge minivans. stupid amount of power for a minivan... More power, and better power:weight than a regular V8 E-350 van.
