I am still trying to figure out the motivation to buy a 6 or 7 or 8 or 9 seater unless your have that many folks in the family...

(not directed at Zonda )

I am amazed at how people will willingly spend hard earned money to simply go ahead and pidgeon hole themselves into mediocrity.

I mean mini-vans and such like are no cheaper, and most cases are more expensive that equivalent exciting cars.

I wonder what goes through ones mind when they are at the dealer (especially if they are not paying cash) and they sign over $35,000 to drive home in a bland, boring, mediocre slush bucket.

I have gone to car dealers and walked around looking interested and when the salesman comes up and gives me the "The Toyota Sienna is the blah blah blah " pitch I will answer something along the lines of "I had no idea there were this many faceless numbers in the world - I mean who else would actually buy this?"

1990? WOW that's a while ago. For this van 1990 + 14 works.

Need the space for 6-7 ppl and sports equipment. I assume that's why many people buy vehices like this.

Kinda makes sense - although I would still rather spend $20,000 on a slightly used Lexus IS300 and make the other 3 walk.....

I like it. Not to big but roomy and still nice to look at. And nice shade of grey too

Heehe, my mom had to buy a Renault Grand Espace her, her husband (pretty high and big overall) and just 3 children, but you have to see their luggages when it comes to go to the sea or the mountain

Very nice MPV. The steering wheel is just like that of the Protege and RX8. I always wondered how people in the market for cars like this decided between an SUV and a van. I would rather have a SUV of course but I guess most guys would.
