Default Have to get rid of my CR-Z

Have some personal issues with family.. One of them almost died while driving lol. But it's more than that.

I really haven't had any time to do anything to the car. Changed the lowbeams to 8K HID's and was about to change the fogs. She's been thinking about '10 or '11 mustang because of the sequential turn signal... And I let my sister talk me into an Evo X. I absolutely love the CR-Z though. If we keep it then it'll stay in the garage and be a weekend car.

I've asked about everyone I know to give me some suggestions but I have to ask you guys. What should I sadly replace the CR-Z with..? I'm sulking over my soon to be loss, so not really caring about prices now. Wife suggested I sleep in the car till then lol.

I really like the Genesis Coupe...especially the 3.8. Also, the new mustang is really nice and powerful...I think the '10 had the old 3.7 that only put out 210 hp. I'd stick with the '11 if that's the case, seeing as you'd be getting better mpg as well as ~310 hp. Why exactly are you replacing your cr-z if you don't mind me asking?

Oh and the Subaru WRX STI is a beauty.

Really depends what you need in a car. I need a small city car for the daily commute and for work, so the CR-Z is perfect. I also just have the one car now, as I sold my Accord, so the mods make the car a bit more fun. If I was to have a second car I would probably get a larger and more powerful car for when I need more space and passengers.

If you just want a slightly larger and quicker cupe, the Gensis is a cool car. I would probably go for something like a Impreza or Lancer Evoluion myself, as awd is nice for those long winters.

An odd feature to base a purchase on! Especially since she'll never see her own turn signal.

Strange post... Have to get rid of the car and replace it with a 40K+ car, yet you might not have to get rid of it, someone almost died; lol,... cryptic.

Anyway.. An '11 Mustang GT would be phenomenal. 412 HP 5.0 yum. STi is awesome, I had a WRX, but its kinda vanilla compared to the STi. EVO, very sweet. I personally LOVE 2 seat roadsters. A lightly loved Porsche Boxter or BMW Z4 would be my 2 picks for high end, low end S2000 or '05 Mazdaspeed Miata <--(best car ever!).

I owned an Evo x sold it to get the crz. The Evo x is an awesome car but I just felt like i was burning a hole in my pocket. It burns through a tank of 93 gas in no time.

The cr-z is a better every day driver for me without losing the sporty aftermarket customization.

We need a backseat for a new addition to the family. I tried to take the wife's ride but after I drop our baby off at the sitter, I need to drop her car off. So that's driving an extra 40 minutes or so everyday for me and I'm setting her back at work. She's in real estate and uses her car for most of her work.

The dying thing is an lol moment to me and my family. It's means that we're glad your alive but just to play off the seriousness of the situation, we wanna joke with you to make you feel at ease.

I'm not saying I want to replace my car for a $40,000. And currently, I'm not worrying about gas mileage. I can't put a baby in the front seat of a CR-Z for any reason whatsoever. That's why I have to get rid of it really.

I should've added that we're in need of backseats. The STI and EVO are my top picks so far. Or if I stick with Honda, then I'm thinking of the Accord. I have to check Acura out as well. I haven't had more than a few hours of sleep this week altogether. Can't even think straight haha.
