Me? I’d go for the new WRX if it comes in a manual wagon format. The bugeye wagon was awesome and it’s high time they repeat that awesomeness.

A Mclaren. Which is why I’m going to be driving the Abarth until I win the lottery.

I guess a new 370Z? Does anyone else still make a RWD, manual transmission car with hydraulic steering?

What makes you choose that over a 150 or  a 350?

Lotus Evora

YES. This is the correct answer. Plus I would still have excuse to wrench on it myself in spite of it being a new car because Lotus.

Id trade my TLX in for a new Miata..or something smaller and lighter

for Michigan > gettingoldercarguy 09/01/2019 at 15:15

If the new Bronco is everything that it looks like it will be, I would happily trade in my 1-series on one.

Regal TourX with the tan interior and a non-boring color, or a manual Sonic hatch in “shock” (green) with the red interior

GM sucks, but at least they still offer cool colors on the Spark and Sonic, and the TourX is an amazing value. A wagon with a big panoramic sunroof for 25k is a good deal (even if a third seat would’ve be nice, but still)

Toyota makes the best cars though, so the manual Corolla hatch naturally is the best choice. The blue is nice, but they need some more cool colors (the only thing GM does better than Toyota right now), and the lack of sunroof sucks so much! Even so, Webasto can always take care of that. They used to make a panoramic sunroof, but they don’t anymore. Sad!

NSX (wait, you said NEW... nevermind)

Maybe an Alfa 4C

V90 manual (other countrie s could get a manual, right?)

yeah - I’m itching to see what the new WRXy is going to look like, (and if they offer it in the hatch.) Also curious if Mazda will pull the trigger on a Speed3.

Well since they arent going to be making the FOST i guess a veloster turbo. My choice? Probably a tacoma.

I think I’d probably trade the F-150 for a new one. It’d be a blue 4x4 SuperCab with the 5.0.

New? I’d change my one Kia for a Rav4 hybrid  and a GT86, and also a lift 

I hace considered it because I could actually afford it

What would I trade it in for? By which you mean, I’d have to buy the thing I’m trading it in for? Hmm.....

I don’t know if there’s anything. All the wagons I’d want are well out of my price range.

I could also trade in for one of these:

That’s a tough question because nobody makes the kind of car I like anymore, namely sporty minivans with manual transmissions. I don’t need a minivan, I just like them. Because of this, I can’t see replacing my trusty little Mazda5 with anything currently sold in the US. But if somehow I was forced to buy another new car, like if mine was wrecked, I’d probably get a Miata.

A CT6, or a C8, or even a new K900, which is a completely different car than the one I drive. I have a day dream that I save the life of some Kia dealership owner, and in gratitude, he gives me one.  Sometimes it’s Stinger. It depends on what is on the showroom floor as I’m waiting for service to bring my car around.

My wife’s Jeep can be the family hauler, but a usable backseat would still be nice. Challenger Scat Pack Widebody. It edges out a Mustang GT350R.

Audi RS6 Avant. Or Porsche Panamera Turbo S Sportwagen. Only because the M3 is going to baby terribly.

I think I’d take a hard look at the 2020 Honda Clarity. Since GM killed the Chevy Volt, a plug in hybrid family sedan that can go almost 50 miles on electric sounds intriguing.

Indian FTR 1200

My first pick would be a Ninja H2, but that sounds like a great way to meet Death before he gets to his next stop, so definitely the Indian instead.

If “new” included old stuff, Honda CBX (inline 6) or Suzuki RE5 (rotary).

I would  say the new Outback 2.4XT but my wife pretty much decided that she just wants to buy one without trading in to keep the current Outback as a beater for camping.

Yeah so if the new WRX has a wagon my money will be gone instantly. I was seriously considering trading in the Forester for a Gladiator but the prices for one the way I want it equipped are just too high and dealers aren’t budging on MSRP near me yet. So at this point I’m gonna wait and see what the next WRX brings.

I’d trade my V70 for any of the new V series wagons that they would hand me the keys to.  I would totally trade the Mrs. CX-5 for a new Mazda5.

Well, I suppose a singer, maybe a Icon. Probably a singer. Or, are we being realistic? I don't think I'd get much if that's the case. 1 payment toward a Tata Nano if I'm lucky

Do you have any idea why that is? I would have thought the larger mass up front would require higher  boosted steering assist that would be easier to achieve electronically

Current ride: 2016 Mazda6.

What I’d trade it on: a 2018 Toyota Camry XSE. Hate all you want but at least I know the Camry will survive the sedan-apocalypse. The 6, maybe not. :(
