Description: Going back 22-years... the four midsize USDM sedans whose nameplates are still being used today (and aren't alphanumeric-soup names)... Sonata, Taurus, Camry, Accord... Though, I just know I've probably forgotten one...

Galant http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:6...ishi-Galant.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:2...ishi_Galant.jpg Maxima http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:1..._M_sedan_01.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:2..._05-01-2010.jpg I really like the fliplight Accords, same with the first gen Taurus. :) [Edited by ricerocketboy on 12-11-2010 @ 12:29:11 PM]

#1, Yeah, I figured brainstorming with more people would bring others up... oh, and http://photo.ricecop.com/pics/crap_..._forgot_one.jpg ...and I was aiming specifically for 1988... Also, I'd like to say that I ADORE the new Maxima's styling... even though it appears to be quite polarizing. [Edited by DiRF on 12-11-2010 @ 12:31:50 PM]

#2, Hmmm.. Trying to think of any other sedans... Can't think of any others right off the bat :/

#3, I don't think the Passat name was used in America until 1989, so that's out... would the Jetta be considered "midsize"? ...and if we're considering compacts, that opens up a whole new raft of cars like the Corolla, Civic, and Sentra...

#4, That's why I was hesitant to post the Galant. In 1988, it was a "compact". Only after 2004, it became a midsize I think.

BMW 5-series, though I suppose that would go under the "alphanumeric-soup names" category.

#6, Exactly what I was attempting to avoid :P

#4, AFAIK Jetta is in fact considered a mid-size.

#8, Then what is the passat? The Jetta is a trunk'd version of the Golf; I'd say it's a compact.

#9, Passat is considered full-sized, as far as I know. I could be wrong. The Jetta is based on the Golf, but it's not significantly smaller than the likes of a Taurus.

the taurus looks the best.

#11, Then and now both, IMO.

I would venture to say I like the fliplight Accord more than the old Taurus... but that's just me.

#13, I agree. Too bad neither of them look Regal enough :P

I've seen one of those Sonatas in the past 5 years, Eagle Premiers are equally as rare.

I see all of these regularly except the Sonatas, and even those are still around in small numbers in my area.

Sonata, Camry and Accord: All still around for the foreseeable future. I'm actually warming to all of their current styling, as all had some questionable styling choices the past ten or so years, and the current incarnations seem more cohesive, overall. Taurus, Galant, Maxima, Regal: Dead. The Passat and Jetta were discussed here, and both are still around, as well... but honestly I've always been "meh" about Volkswagen sedans. Always been more inclined to care about the hatchbacks and convertibles.
