That would be nice.  :)

Here are some suggestions:

Yamaha CFIIIs
Steinway D
Bosendorfer Imperial

If those aren't possible, then...

an old upright at least 58" to 60" tall and at least
66" wide, with a 26 or 25 note bass, no wound strings
on long bridge, an ornate case, ivory keys, lost
motion compensator, etc... (one that if it was being
manufactured today would make someone who was on a
tight budget look at a Steinway D instead)

Ok, I know I'm dreaming.  I do like grands over 7
foot, but if you DO decide to get me a model B
Steinway, I would prefer that it has wound strings on
the first 5 unisons in the tenor section.

I would be satisfied with a Baldwin Hamilton, though.

Keep in mind, though, that space IS limited (although
I think I could fit a 9-foot grand in my house, my
parents don't think so), and I would have to get their
permission before I get another piano.


Ok, I kinda DO think you aren't serious about getting
me a new piano, but just in case I am wrong, here are
a few suggestions ^^^^^^^.
