My car won't be modified any more than the Contour has been over the past four years although I am a fan of that generation Maxima.

Baco - I do like the Saab but I read many reviews on MSN Autos about them. There was many about the car dying or refusing to start; way too many for me to be comfortable purchasing one. I do like the Volvo a bit, rather boxy but otherwise quite a nice car. I will not be purchasing private-party, I'm planning to trade in the Contour, hopefully at a smallish car lot (have a few recommendations from friends).

The Altima is looking more and more favorable as well. Although I'm not the greatest fan of its style, it is ideal in most other respects.

Lots to choose from - thanks all! Now to actually get out and test drive a few ...
