Oh man I'm definitely getting those for the future baby. At least the kid will have better seat that I'll ever own.

newborn =/= a 2 year old..otherwise you must have a very unique SO if she is ok with you doing donuts and drifts with your newborn... you don't need to explain having a kid in your twin, my kid grew up in two different twins from rear facing seats to booster seat to now sitting next to me in the passenger seat shifting the gears for me. but hence my original point, OP doesn't need a separate fun car if he is keeping the twins..just get a comfy car that is easy to take the car seat in/out until his kid can start climbing in the car on his own and then switch the baby over to the twins.

Mazda 6
Golf R Camry should be very high on your list, shockingly competent at everything, go drive one. Similarly Accord and Acura should be on the long list. Corolla too small and econo-box imho, same with mazda 3. |

If the QV is anywhere like here, they hold value really well as are quite uncommon. A half decent one here is no less than in the low £40k, so I would expect in dollars to be over the $50k budget (give or take UK/US market differences). Obviously the Veloce can be had much cheaper and comes with plenty of performance especially with a remap and, unless you need Race mode, pretty much is a QV lite.
PS. a QV is likely to be the replacement to my 86 - it's a cracking car.
