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..

 

How is it that you dad tells you what car you can have and what car you cant have?

 

Always go six-speed!!!

 

Keep the CL and lose the other car. Problem solved.

 

I'd get rid of my car if it ever gets hit........I don't like body work

 

thats how my dad, and myself feels.. havent talked to him about the next car yet though..

 

thats easy.. he's paying for it

 

Want something under $30K and have a 6spd..... 350Z

 

doesnt come out for a month and a half.. and havent seen/drove it yet

 

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
