If were were allowed to have wagons with manual transmissions here in the states, I'd be all over that.

Just a Gaijin

It's a Toyota Auris Toruing Sports Hybrid. Uses the same engine that's in the Second gen Prius I believe. My Parents drive one. It's a good, relatively fast car with a lot of boot space, but i'm not surprised about the pedal feel and response of the brakes and the gas. I can't really find a sweet spot for the brakes, so my braking is always kinda jerky at least not a smooth as in my Yaris and the gas isn't responsive due to the CVT transmission.
Back to the topic: Hopefully my next car will be BMW E30. But i can't afford one yet. Before you buy one you need to make sure you have enough money left to fix it otherwise, you'll end up selling it again if something brakes. |

Kia Stinger is on my list i would probably go for the base 2ltr turbo 8 speed automatic. It's a hatchback it has plenty of room at the back i have 1 kid so if i have another it would come in handily. Just waiting on the specs specially the weight and MPG. I was also looking at Mazda mx5 NC series 2. With the electric roof but it's a 2 seater and only good for a daily and not much else. I am interested in a VAN as well since my brother has one it's really cool specially if you can put a bed at the back heck you can turn in into a home away from home so i thought about the Nissan El grand. |

No more non-hatch vehicles for me - Too limiting in terms of potential utility.
My current 'favorite contenders' for my next vehicle purchase (fall/winter, 2020): (1) Another Toyota Yaris SE (if I like the next gen one AFTER the 2018-2020 refresh fiasco is history). (2) Toyota iM (Assuming I like the 2019(?) refresh version changes or beyond). (3) Lexus CT200H F-Sport (would have to be lower-mileage used 2017 one, since that is last U.S. production year for them). (4) Mazda3 Hatchback (depends on any future changes made to it) (5) Honda HR-V (Depends on changes made to initial/current version, since current one has some deal-breaker issues for me) - Last edited by Kalispel; 07-14-2017 at 08:00 PM. |

This time i am waiting for something that makes me say yep that's it.I am taking my time.
It's gotta be Hatch back AWD or RWD Turbo Room for a kid Capable of long distance Great daily Supple sporty ride not harsh. Good MPG. Affordable. |

Sounds like maybe a Ford Focus RS or Subaru Forester 2.0XT or Subaru WRX.

Last three cars were: Ford Ranger, Yaris, and Corolla (current). My next car will be a Yaris.
Although I did flirt with other hatchbacks, the Yaris has more appeal. i did ask my wife if we could get a $55k Focus RS and she grounded me for saying such nonsense. ;) |
