My wife and I use it as our main car, but we still have a back up proton hanging around in case we need a 4 sitter.
If you plan for a baby.... as much as I like the car, unless you plan to buy a 2nd car in 2-3 yrs time, i say forget it. dont let your heart take control over your head. yes u can put a child seat, but with a child, you have tonnes of other stuff to carry with you... and without the seat folded down, you dont have much space. Listen to your wife. You wont regret it.  blush.gif

This car will not have much 2nd hand value as well... I bought this car knowing I am in for the long haul. Its rare, its unique and i see that it has alot of potential to do a lot of things in the future.

I plan to change my proton later for something else in a few years time once my loan for the Z is paid off.

On the plus side, this car, its great car, really fun to drive, responsive.... as its very new, and i have not had a chance to play with it too much (currently overseas), i cant tell for sure as i have not rev above 3K but i would say the performance does not feel too much different from FD 2.0 which was my main car b4 this.  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif

And if you do go down the path of passion vs logic tongue.gif, get the FL, not that the 2012 is not good just for a little more,  you get all the advancement, s+, more power etc and 5 yrs unlimited mileage warranty.

This is the main concern that is stuck in my brain now bro. Im offloading my 6 months old Preve to an important family person, so the Z will be my only main car. Passion is running strong in me now against logic. But the women boss sounds logical also. What a struggle.....

hahaha.. sorry abit too blunt. 30.... most prob your first kid is in the planning.... dont think this is a suitable car.... want a sporty car... get a focus? 4 door family sedan, and it's quite sporty as well. has more muscle than cr-z for sure.

If wife rejects the car, my suggestion is to listen to your wife. IMHO, you don't want to end up in a situation where she says "I told you so". Trust me, you'd never hear the end of it till you die. laugh.gif
I drive a CRZ, however, I also have other cars to appease the Lord-at-Home, thus if you are planning for one car only, I would suggest a 4 door car.
