be as big as you want

I think this is likely to refer to the space options of the sedan, as most car adverts accentuate the point so maybe
"a car where you can be as big as you want"
"be as big as you want with this car"
"a car where you can be as big as you want"
"be as big as you want with this car"

"a car with which to live happily"
is how I would interprete this, as "happily growing up" or "happily growing old" is a bit touchy, as some potential buyers might be insulted by the implication....

Otherwise it could mean that "With this car you will go happier and happier", maybe...
