What do you drive and why?

Just got a 2019 Subaru Forester. Had a 2012 till someone decided to T-bone me on the drivers side. The car held up very well to the impact. Walked away even though the damage was such insurance called it a total loss. Safety was a main consideration in getting the new one, plus the AWD system, improved mileage and reliability of the brand. Had an older Honda CRV (2006) and almost bought another, great small SUV.
So what do you drive and why?

2003 VW Passat bought used in 2007 34K miles up to about 115K now, for $10K easily one of the best purchases I've ever made. Two years ago I have a really good shop do a bunch of work improving the suspension and replacing anything that needed replaced plus new wheels and tires. It drives better now than when I first bought it. I live in the city, DC, so don't drive tons and hope it's my last car.
