SC 6.2 litre not 7.0 (427ci). Sean if your serious about needing a fun 4-door this is one hell of a NASTY ride. Drove my buddies several times a couple months back... ...very impressive.

I'm confused. My 3-year-old loves my 996TT and the car seat fits perfectly.

I was going to buy the wife a KIA and keep the CTT for myself, but she got all whiney. Since she has gotten in great shape as of late and has promised to flow me a bit of cash (will believe it when I see it....she was also supposed to pay last years property taxes....still waiting...) towards the CTT, I am letting her have it.

The G35 is a great DD but is a 2 door. The Caddy is a bit pricey for a DD. My days of making big money in real estate are long gone and now I have to get by on my puny teaching salary.

Why not try using your M3 for awhile and see how that works? If it works out then you're having fun hauling your terrible two yr. old around in your speedy bimmer and saved some coin. If that doesn't work there is always the trunk

Yes, you will........I am going to pick up an 07 Yukon Denali to daily drive and throw all 3 little rats in the back and tell them to figure it out. Another great big daily is a QX56... Then again I'm rollin' 3 deep, you are only having to work it with one kid, one is EASY! LOL

I've been thinking of picking up an A3 2.0T DSG as a beater. You can pick them up around 20, 4 doors, AWD, can tune/upgrade the turbo if you want some fun, great tranny and the wife can drive it if I need to take her car for some reason.

Get an '06 CLS55 AMG. The can be had with reasonable miles in the low 40s now, have 4-doors, 4-seats, roll out hard, and are mod friendly. They are also one of the coolest lookingcars on the road.
