I didn't want to jack dustin's thread so...My GF and myself were thinking of saving up a bit to put a down payment on something newer. So far, these are the choices...
I know they all aren't in the same price range, but I/we are willing to spend a bit more for something a little more luxurious/classy (TL/G35). Looking for something between $25-30k CAD. Car prices up here are a bit more expensive than they are stateside, but if you guys can suggest anything else that fits in the price range, please post it up and WHY. Just to compare, a few local guys imported a couple brand new 06-07 sti's last year from the states, and they ended up being close to $5-6k CAD chepaer landed (after import taxes/duty/gst/excise/whatnot). Let me know! Thanks! |

I don't think a non automatic would be a problem, as both of us enjoy driving manual over auto anyways, so no sacrafice there...
I'm not sure how exactly the TSX falls into fuel efficient (City 21-22 mpg...) but it would definately be everything else you mentioned. Like I've previously stated, I'm not overly worried with the "buying a car with the GF" fact. All things conisdered, I think we've already been through alot together. We live together, "share" money (the money is all coming from the same pocket concept...) and the fact that we've already bought 3 or so cars together helps to put my mind at ease.
