let's just say 2 people can definitely fit in the passenger front seat .... while parked

the funny thing about your question is that you asked about the X and not the '74 VW BUG! LOL!

Lots of interesting cars on these lists

My list may be boring by comparison...

1972 Ford Gran Torino (351C used to breathe fairly well)
1978 Camaro Z28 (350 slightly warmed over - went through MANY rear tires)
1985 Escort (don't ask)
1986 Taurus
1991 Mazda 323 (car is still running great - sold it to a local kid)
1994 MB E420
1998 Nissan Maxima SE
1999 BMW 540ia
2001 BMW X5 4.4
2004 Acura MDX

I think that's it....

Currently contemplating lots of things. Fun to shop!

OK, don't ANY of you keep your cars more than one or two years?!? Holy crap, folks!! I am shocked at how often most of you get a new car!! I mean, good for you... and kudos to all of 'ya, but, wow!!

(And, yes, I had an '02 Benz which I traded in for my '03 X5, but we did that to take advantage of the Section 179 tax break; otherwise, I think I'd still be driving that Benz. Very glad I bought the X, though )
