I never had one of those. I did have a 328i 4-banger hard-top convertible and a whole slew of 4-cylinder Saabs before they went belly up (thank you GM).
Only 6-cylinder I ever had was a very rare 1992 Acura Legend Coupe with a 5-speed manual.

The Legend was peak Honda. One of the best cars ever made.
Though they did sought of fill the gap to a degree with the Accord 3500NT from 2013 onward but I am a bit pissed off they deleted the Legend.
I have owned just about every model of Accord since 1984.
That was a very good car indeed, but there is something about the Legend coupe that is timeless.
N NORBYI drive a MK7.5 GTi which has been a great car for me but not one I love.
Over the last 5 years i've been working on my E30 but moving house has seen that be put up for sale as well.
Currently tossing up between a new Defender 110 or a Macan for a more suitable family car
Right now the primary kid-hauler is the Bronco. It does the job pretty well. And then there is the ongoing project. a '73 T3 Squareback.
What a great range of vehicles, love it!
We got a Tiguan for our daughter and she loves it. I test drove several options with her, including a Rav4, CRV, Escape, Bronco Sport (wife is and Eng at Ford) and we both loved the Tiguan more than any of the others. I actually enjoyed driving it so much it convinced me to seriously consider VW Groups more sport/lux mini-SUV's like the SQ5 and finally settled on the Macan GTS. I'd love to get my wife the SQ5 which would give us the full range of Tiguan/SQ5/Macan, but she'll go with a Ford employee lease option.
How does the full-size Bronco drive in the city? We found the Bronco Sport with a very floaty/truck feeling and so decided against it (even though wife and daughter love the styling). I assume the full size Bronco is no more sporty to drive, being even larger and more off-road worthy...? It looks great though, love they're bringing back some of the great retro bodies (new Electric Scout is being rumored, would be cool if it resembles the original...)
Oh man I love my GTI. I've had my 2015 MK7 since...well 2015! It will be 9 years in May. The longest I've owned a single car by more than double.
And I plan to hang on to it for another couple of years. Before it, I had a MK6! And guess what? There is a good chance I'll pick up an 8.5 when they are released!
But like you, I have kids to think about and as they get older I wouldn't mind having something with a bit more space.
So I do have sedans on the mind. Or if the stars align, a fun wagon of sorts.

I had an E30 for less than a month as a project almost 20 years ago. Picked it up from a guy for a few hundred bucks and then was offered more than that by someone else so I just went ahead and sold it since I already had another project at the time - a MK2 Jetta with a VR6 swap.
If you haven't noticed, I'm a bit of a VW fan. Before the Bronco we had an Atlas, and before that a Tiguan, and another Tiguan, and a Bug...
This is my daily... stock photo from the website but configured as I ordered it. '23 Macan GTS -- first Porsche for me, lots of fun to drive!
This was the day I picked it up from having paint correction, PPF and ceramic applied.
Gorgeous car, with amazing config. I have a '21 in Miami Blue, puts a smile on my face every time I look at it.
