98 3.0CL auto transmission died RIP

Finally my 98 3.0 CL auto transmission died needs replacing. Decided to put it out of its misery and scrap it. Auto wrecker offered me $230 cdn pick up and toe included. Having pioneer HD radio deck summer and winter tires with steel and oem rims. Just can't let it go for basically nothing.

Borrowed my moms 06 TL i bought her while looking for similar coupe as my 98 CL 3.0. Love how the 06 TL drives but hate the sedan style. So looking to move on with my dependable transportation i had over the years. Intrigued possible replacement with Lexus RC F or Rc 350. Just difficult to find the colour i want with options and price point used.

Anyone convince me making wrong decision leaving the acura community?. In heartbeat if Acura made affordable coupe version i be buying it for sure. Guess i may have to wait for 2021 styles see what they come up with in coupe version.

Sadly there are no Acura coupes, can't blame you for leaving and trying to find a 2 door

What about something like a later model V6 Accord Coupe with a 6MT?
