Thanks Biggie... I was actually considering the 3, I'll add that to the list!

Another option is to buy whatever sedan you like and just put the carrier in the center of the rear seat.

The infant carrier days go by really quickly but they just extended the recommended rear facing convertible time from 12M to 24M so you'll realistically have a rear facing seat behind you for almost two years. That's a long time to be uncomfortable so make sure you test fit the seat in whatever car you look at.

The thread title made me laugh because you'll find out very quickly that "small" and "family" don't go together when talking cars.
Haha, that's the challenge I may have to lower my expectations a little bit. But great points about test fitting the carrier. Thank you
