what should i do?

my cl was recently damaged in a accident.. with $7000+ in repairs.. and now my dad wants me to sell my other car (94 hatchback) which i bought while the car was in the shop.. and trade in the car for another car.. i was thinking about the rsx-s but thats kinda like downgrading from cl-s to rsx-s and plus.. my cousin already has one.. what should i do? either way i have to sell my hatch.. and either drive the cl as it is.. or trade it for another car lets say.. under 30,000.. maybe ill ask them for a 6-speed w/ navi.. but i dont know if they would like that idea.. since its going to cost much more than the rsx-s.. what do you think i should do car wise? aim for 6-speed cl, settle with rsx-s, or just continue using my cl as is.. im tired of the slush box.. i was without the car for 2 months while it was in the shop.. and racing my lil hatch was pretty fun =] whats the feedback on the 6-speed? i havent test drove one before..

what was damaged w/ the cl now? if no major components damaged, i'd say stick w/ it. i don't think your dad will be thrilled about getting you another faster, more expensive car. plus the insurance is going to drive him into the cleaners w/ the 6 sp for you.

that's my $0.02 if you don't want to down grade. i don't like the rsx anyway. most of the owners are either old ppl or young pricks. so take your choice
