Having multiple cars is always nice I have to admit and I recently downsized a bit but never a good thing when tags and insurance is due!

here's what we have right now:

1. Something simple...5th gen Prelude (automatic)
2. Something faster...my NSX is my baby, not really faster though
3. Something big...my ML320 is my workhorse
4. Something small...my Hayabusa is great for quick errands

Coming soon for us:

5. Something drop top...white s2000 CR project
6) Something great mpg...Prius is in the plans

Yup the GTS only seats 5~

Few SUV's can seat 7+ these days, only the GL from Mercedes and the Lexus LX570 come to mind in terms of luxo suv's....

no one likes the MDX? it has small 3rd row seating and i think a little better in value to a comparably equipped RX. i'm always stealing my father's MDX to take groups of friends here and there... it's hard to roll up deep in the F!

I drive the F around mostly, but I take my 97 carolla out to the grocery stores...seriously. Thats where careless soccer moms give you door dings. I probably have the worst alternative on these boards.
