Mazda 3 5-door; not really a basic family car, not quite a sports car, so I voted “other”. ---

I selected “Basic Family Car”, I drive a Ford Crown Victoria, which is pretty much the largest car you can drive. So, it isn’t really Basic, and it definitely isn’t a SUV, but it was the closest choice I had. ---

So, it isn’t really Basic, and it definitely isn’t a SUV, but it was the closest choice I had. Yea! Once I started making up the poll, I quickly realized that 10 choices was not going to be enough. ---

My car is the 2007 Toyota Camry SE. the SE stands for “sports edition”. It comes with special rims, special steering wheel, a body kit, spoiler, leather upholstery, and a 6 disc cd changer, yet has automatic transmission and 4 doors. It’s a sports family car. 🙂 found a pic: [http://www.autospectator.com/cars/files/images/08\_Camry\_SE\_24.jpg](http://www.autospectator.com/cars/files/images/08_Camry_SE_24.jpg) Mine is blue too. ---

I don’t drive at all, getting everywhere exclusively via public transit. So I selected “other”. ---

There was no option for American Muscle Car, so I put my vote in expensive sports car. ---
