I have several friends with Nissan products and they seem to love or hate them. Haven't heard bad things on the Altima so might do okay since Nissan seems to be getting better. We also have a 2006 Toyota Matrix XRS. 185 HP with the VVTi timing. Not only changes the timing curve but when you get to 6500 RPM it also increases lift! Not a girls car, but it's my wife's and she never gets it to 6500 RPM and gets a steady 29 MPG with a cross country commute with big hills (we see 33 on trips). I see lift when I'm alone and it's quite an additional kick!

The MB GL320 sounds really good. I've been waiting to buy a new vehicle as my 69 truck (original owner) will eventually fail (the cab mounts will rust out before the mechanicals fail), and I've been wanting a smaller diesel truck but they aren't out there yet. I wonder when America will wake up?
