I voted based on size of the car I actually have, which is an Escort (compact 4-seater, although it has 4 doors). Car that fits my lifestyle and preferences? I'd say either a big ol' hog (motorcycle), or a 4x4 pickup--but I don't have either one right now.

But the Escort has its advantages, here in the city.
 
Audi quattro 4 door -----OMG I have something in common with Curt!!

Merc SLK 2 door 2 seat hard top convertible just for fun

and an old Ford Ute 2 door drop tray

The poll is for single choice so which do I choose?
 
My dad just got a brand new 2003 Saturn Vue. It is BEAUTIFUL. It looks just like this only black:

I'm almost 16 and looking for a car. I want to get an old porsche 944, but my mom wants me to something safer so I might get an infiniti QX4. I included pictures of them.

Blame it on my dementia. It's a subtle distinction, but one I made because I thought the image of a Beetle Vs a Civic would best illustrate the difference I was trying to make.
 
If a Pontiac Grand AM is considered a compact, I would say a Civic is too.
 
I have a mid-size Grand Prix coupe, but it's bigger than a mustang or civic. It's the same size as the four-door models, but it's a wide-track, so it might be bigger.

I think it's one of the larger, heavier cars you can get.
 
Mid sized 4 seater

Hmmm. You'll probably get more chicks with the Porsche, but you'll have more room to "get to know them better" in the Qx4. Tough choice. (I'd take the Porsche though, and make sure the girls I date are contortionists....)
