Decisions, Decisions. Which Britax Car Seat Should I Choose?

Since my 3 year old, very out-spoken daughter Sophie told me a few weeks ago that she wants a new car-seat because hers isn't "cute" anymore, I have been shopping around, looking for the best options. Safety is most important, followed by comfort and looks. But looks matter a lot, considering my little diva is very particular!

So I was thinking about Britax, since their car seats are known for being among the best. I see SO many moms, online and in real life, completely rave about this brand. Sadly, I have never worked with Britax and have not yet experienced their products.

So I would like some advice from you Britax-loving mamas out there. I am kind of stuck between 2 different car seats, and need some help deciding which one to purchase. This is a major investment, so I'd love to make sure I am making the best choice for my family.

The Frontier 90 looks wonderful, and comes in some great colors that Sophie loves. It also has very good safety features like true side impact protection, safe cell technology, and HUGS harness.

But I also love the look of the Pinnacle 90. This has a very different appearance and comes in great colors, including an adorable hot pink and black print that Sophie would go nuts over. This seat also have great safety features, and like the Frontier 90, can be used in both front facing mode or as a booster.

So as you can see, I am pretty stuck here! Anyone out here have either of these seats? What are the pros and cons? Or maybe there's something else you can recommend? I'd love your feedback!
