Sort Of a Problem?!

New to the Board!

Currently looking for a new car, obviously im in the market for a tsx!! But the only trouble im having is locating a 2006+ manual trans with nav. Under $18. The closest i can find one is like 300 miles away!!

Any suggestions?!

I actually found one when i first started looking and called the guy to go look at it and it sold!!!! So bummed.

Flying to go see it is always an option. Is it possible to have dealers locate the car and to get it too the location. Or is a too much of a hassle for them?!

06...... $18K?................boy that seems awfully high to me. There 07's and 08's all over ebay for that or a little more (don't know about MT models, but sorry...... they're actually usually cheaper). And...... it seems you have two options. Either wait till something local pops up (could be a while) or.... go where the car is. If you have plates, you could rent a car one way and drive out (for like <400 miles), or you could take a bus or fly. It may depend on how bad you want the car.
