    My grandfather had a Caddy similar to this one when I was a lad, but his wasn't as ambivalent.

    That car might cause accidents from head turners or older people who can't see that well. The older people might think they're in the wrong lane and go switch real quick.

    Apparently my picture of a Nissan Juke isn’t allowed... just google it, it’s the third prettiest car in the world :grimace::tongue:

    FWIW -- I always thought that the Aztek was a concrete example of why creative types aren't always well served by taking copious amounts of LSD.
    (although truth be told, it would be kind of cool to have an Aztek -- at the least, I could figure out which car in the parking lot was mine)

    I think the Juke is kind of cute, actually.
    Not quite sure what psychotomimetic the Japanese designers prefer.

    I liked the original morph of the Scion xB, too. I figure the car design was prototyped with Legos rather than modeling clay.

    Consumer Reorts hated those big boxy SUV's. I never drove one so I have no experience.
    Consumer Reports LOVED that Scion Box vehicle. The space inside is voluminous I think they said.

    "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" for sure.
    My first new car was like this without the sunroof though.
    In person, it got a lot of thumbs up! The fact that it's fun and comfortable to drive are BIG factors too.

    I'm driving my Mom's 1992 Camry LE, only 82K miles, it runs great. Always garaged. Should run a long time yet. Still has a very quiet, very comfortable ride. 23 mpg in town. Mom is 89, she does not drive anymore. :)

    My wife loves our new/used 95 also. She was in an accident in our other Tan one 4 years after we bought it. It was hit by a red light runner broadside and the car was totaled. Nancy was bruised by her seat belt but otherwise OK. We tried to fine another 95 or 96 but there were literally none for sale for 200 miles. So we bought a smaller 99 white/grey Camry. Solid little car and she still loves that one to this day.

    We replaced our 95 with a 95-V6 many years later with a maroon colored one. I still have that too. So 2-Camry owners here. Our daughter has a 14 Camry hybrid that is awesome. I want one of those but Nancy doesn't want payments again. :#

    I wanted to buy "American" but reliability was the major factor in all our decisions.

    Our kitchen deserves a good sink, I’ll take two. Actually, make that three, my friends kitchen deserves a good sink as well. And I need a backup. None of my other friend’s kitchens are worthy, so that’ll be it, thank you :tongue:

    I lived in an older house that had one similar to that but it didn't have a right side off of the sink. Same faucet and style though. 7 years doing dishes in that thing. ;)
