I suspect a BMW 1-series hatchback, which is much more comparable to the Yaris is also much closer in price. Perhaps that would provide a good compromise for you.
I suspect the utility your husband sees in the X3 has little to do with a car's supposed function of transporting people and property and much more with its value as a status symbol. Unfortunately for him, displays of wealth tend to hinder one's attempts to accumulate wealth.
- ahoyhere 16y agoI wasn't comparing the two cars' price points with each other, but comparing their price points with their US price points. Neither of those cars, actually, were ones either of us wanted. I just had seen ads for them recently. And trust me, it's not a status symbol to my husband. Nobody is impressed by BMWs in Austria. They're common as dirt. Even all the cabs are Mercedes sedans, or the occasional Prius. I refuse to get a BMW because we'll drive, like I said, maybe 10-15 hours a month. It costs the same to buy a car as to rent one each time, if we get a cheaper but reliable VW. So how nice the car is to drive doesn't really matter.
