Young kids fit great! My oldest daughter is 10 and she is probably just reaching the point where she will start to feel cramped in another year or two.

Our daughter is just over 3 so she's got a lot of time left to grow into it. I heard the cabriolet is a little more cramped in the back due to the back seat being a tad less reclined. Have you found this to be true?

A friend got one as loaner too and he said the same exact thing. Between the looks and reviews I was all set on the Panamera.

We drove an S90 a while back and it really didn't suit us. Our S80 has the V8 and sports package which makes it fairly sporty for what it is, and the V8 sounds fantastic lol. We've driven a recent 7 series which we didn't like at all and I just drove an E60 M5 couple weeks ago. The M5 seemed to fit us better but I hated the SMG tranny and my Wife refuses to drive a manual......sigh. I guess we'll keep checking out other cars at our leisure and if nothing really comes up, we're ok with that. We really do like our Volvo and the lack of a car payment is really nice.
As for Aston, I really don't know where the nearest dealer is offhand. We live about 2 hrs South of St.Louis which isn't really close to anything.

A Bentley Mulsanne would be nice. A buddy has one and likes it. Are there any indy repair places near you that could work on an Aston?
