Thanks for all the reply guys..... I was leaning towards the Mazda 6 Hatch, Accord Euro Vti, Camry Sportivo and Aurion Touring SE. 1 point i did forget to mention is that the boot needs to be big enough to fit a pram for the little one. So far i think the camry, aurion and mazda meet this need. I havent seen the new euro in person as yet. I think after reading posts from Honda forum and Toyota forum - i am leaning towards the Aurion Touring or Prodigy. I hear great things - and in terms of space, i believe the aurion provides big enough space for me and my family. When purchasing the car - i will be looking at install HID's and in need of a built in GPS (which i believe AUSPACK is recommended). I regret buying a holden 2bhonest, build quality is sh*t. thigns creaking everywhere. some final questions: Is the drive smooth? i might go take a test drive to get a feel for it. More importantly - ATX / Touring or SPORTIVO SX6 ?? and again.....What color? I like the white but it seems like a rental car. All thats missing is an avis sticker lol. Maybe tungsten or Black?
