What are your favorite 5-place cars under 5000cc?


You have to have 5-seats (or more), and engine displacement cannot be larger than 5.0L.


This opens up a wide variety of any car from any year that seats 5. Whether it be a FWD coupe, or a RWD wagon, which cars do you prefer?

Let me be the first to say ORLY about the 993.

It won't seat 5. It was my first pick, otherwise.

This would basically be an ever-changing, ongoing list for me as I don't think there are any cars I like with more than 5,000ccs except maybe a few Ferraris.

Prelude motors didn't get bigger than 2.3L.

And this car has a stock motor. Still plenty fast though. Easily a 15 second car.

LOL, man I don't think my little 14 pound dachshund could fit in the XK or 8 series back seat.

How small is the back seat of an 8-series?

Depending on price, that could be a good deal.

At 6'4", I'm not a good judge, but after riding in my uncles for a while, I can safely say they're not much better than the rear seats in my dads 911.  The only difference is, they look far nicer (more comfortable, and therefore give off the feeling of more space)

Even so, the 911 and 8-series don't qualify because those rear seats only have two seatbelts = not 5 places.

Not sure about the Peugeot 406 (I've driven one, and a Coupe model), but the others all hit the spot, big time!

An easy mistake - the 6 key is right next to the Mi*space*16 key.

Ah, an object of desire, the MI-16 .......... yes, that's allowed on the list, for sure!

I just misremembered a kind of obscure name of a kind of obscure car. It happens.
