Replying to: budh (Mar 17, 2007 6:18 pm) There's a small Suzuki car that comes with AWD and lots of safety features. Got good reviews in the Boston Globe recently, including a comment about how roomy it was for taller people. Dunno if a moonroof is available. Wish I could remember the name of the vehicle, but I remember that the cost was in the $16,000 range.

The current 4 CYL model may fit your requirements. All of the 2007 models have side air bags and row curtains. We have the 2WD V6 which did an excellent job through a very rough winter. If you can get away with the 2WD model, 22 city/28 highway, ABS, stability and traction control are standard. As for the Suzuki SX4... our local dealer has a $1,500 mark-up on them. I'd be interested to see the crash testing as there doesn't appear to be much protection in the SX4.
