I really like having it. aside from it being a sedan, it has ALOT of “luxury” type features that myself, at this age wouldnt really be able to afford. consider it used yes, but mine is basically mint with 60k miles. nice leather interior. i mean could be alot nicer, but its good for what it is. the car isnt THAT bad looking, kinda sporty (coupe). Chrome wheels, supercharger, sunroof, heated seats, dual climate control, BOSE sound system, ONStar, i mean dollar for dollar the features are all there that make it somewhat cool to own at our ages without really having to worry about spending all our money on it

for people who insist on driving an american car, i can’t really think of anything else i would rather own as a practical daily driver.

I was honestly open to EVERY car this last purchase but still ended up with a GTP. :dunno: Granted, space was a big criteria though. And \<$30K (after negotiating & rebates). Subarus were too small, SUVs too SUVish, 300C styling too much for me, Acura too much $$.
So what would have been a better choice?

that’s exactly my point: that was the best choice for you. it wouldn’t have been for me. different people, different tastes.
_(i would choose the 300C, but that’s because i always wanted to sell blow in the north hills. and look obvious doing so…)_
