I'm kinda sorta maybe in the market for a new car. I've got a Nissan Sentra right now, so I'm used to something very small. I'm thinking my next car will need to be bigger so there is room for dd's car seat and possibly a second seat for a hypothetical future baby. If you've got a mid size sedan, what do you have? Do you like it and think it's big enough for you and two carseats or do you wish you had something bigger? For the record, dh has a decent size station wagon, so we've got a larger vehicle for long trips or carting the dogs around with us. I just need something to get to and from childcare and work.
If you have a need for an all-wheel drive sedan, I cannot say enough great things about the Audi A4. I currently have an Infiniti and I miss my Audi tremendously - space, handling, everything!
ETA: I also cannot say enough wonderful things about the Honda Accord!! It just doesn't have AWD and I need that these days!
I have a 2005 Accord. I kind of hate how low it is but they don't make them as low anymore. It has a ton of space and will last forever. The new redesign of the Accords is really nice.

I loved my Toyota Camry and it saved my life in a head-on collision with a drunk driver...we wanted a small SUV for more room for kids, otherwise I would've bought another Camry
My family has owned two Hyundai Sonatas as well and can't say enough good things about them either
I have a Mazda 6- there's enough room for two RF britax boulevards in there and my h can still scoot his chair back far enough to be comfortable (he's 6'2). When the kids are fussing, there's enough room for me to fit between te two seats tightly wedged, but not uncomfortable.
I have a 2012 accord and I hate it. I feel like I'm driving a boat and it's low. In fact I can't even pull in my garage without it scraping the bottom. It is roomy, though.
