Default Britax Roundabout and Marathon

I am considering either a Roundabout or Marathon (or possibly the Evenflo Triumph) for my daughter. She is 7 months old, 28 in (95th percentile) in height and 16.5 lbs (50th percentile) in weight. She's been 75th-95th percentile height since birth and she may continue that way. I say may because I am only 5'5" and my husband is 5'9". We have taller people in our familes though.

She seems to be longer in the torso than legs. I measured her seat to shoulder height today and it was about 10 and a quarter inches.

I have a 2004 Chevrolet Impala, four door sedan. My husband has a 1994 Chevrolet Corsica, four door. I would like to use the same seat in both cars but we could get two separate ones and they wouldn't have to be the same seat.

I orginally wanted the Roundabout since it is smaller and then since she is taller thought the Marathon would be a better value. I've been researching the Triumph too and it looks like a good option.

Any thoughts, opinions or advice?
