    Probably something that is not too high off the ground (SUV) and not too low (sporty cars)

    Accord, Camry come to mind.

    You may want to check out some minivans, they may be too high off the ground though.

    I think minivans are the best since they are very easy to get in and out of.

    That and Oldsmobiles along with Cadillacs and Lincolns. Too bad that GM no longer makes Oldsmobiles.

    What age do you consider old then? IMO most older people 70 and above tend to drive "American" and they wouldn't be caught dead in "Nazi" or (Insert UN-PC term here) car..
