From Acura to Subaru?

I'm seriously intrigued by the new Acura RDX. But if it looks anything like a CRV, I’m thinking the Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT.

The Subie is the best bang for the buck on the road today. Many members have recently made the switch

Out of the cars right now? Sub LGT. However, I won't be selling for awhile, so I'll wait and see what Honda might come out with.

I'd like to think there's another mid-sized coupe coming down Acura's pipes soon...if there is, that'll likely be my next vehicle.

Otherwise, I'm leaning towards a new TL or a Lexus IS350.

I'm keepin' the CL for awhile but next on the list is more than likely a 6spd CL-S, or M3, or I'll go back to my muscle car roots and pick up the pony I was looking for to begin with.

I'm want to see what Acura coupe is ever offered again, otherwise any new Jap or German coupe will get looked over, new G35 coupe, how new is it?, new BMW 3 coupe (price?), Lexus IS coupe, price/size?, would consider the TL or RL sedans. I'm intrigued by the BMW 6 series too. I prefer buying used, 1-2 years old, so it may be a while before I replace my CLS.

I'm thinking the same way... buying used 1-2 years old... that's what I did for the car before my CL, and it worked out nicely...

The new G37 (concept) doesn't look like it's really changed that much, but we'll know more when the production model debuts next month....

IS coupe will likely be pricey if you load it up... (just like the sedan).

Hopefully acura will come out with a interesting coupe soon... I might actually be persauded into buying new again, if it's really interesting...

I was so close to buying a BMW 330CI before the CL-S, but I have to say the CL-S was well worth the $$$$. I just love the styling of the 330CI so much. A friend of mine just bought an 04 black 330, it's so hot.

I think the new 3 series coupe will further age the current version, it's nice but it's basically been around since what, the late 90s? For the BMW prices I want more than what they offer.

Besides, I guess the way I see it is why would you want a CSL as a daily driver anyway. It's completely stripped down to the bare essentials. Not exactly what I'd like to drive around all the time. To each his own though.

I completely agree. They charge so much for so little. I was looking at a 2002 325CI, jus for kicks, and they wanted freakin $29K for that. Nothing special or fancy about it. The CL-S blows it away in speed, features, and many more things. The Acura was well worth the $$$, and so much less.

Presently: 03 CL-S6

In 3-5 years depending on a few things:
House --> 03 CL-S6
Master degree --> 03 CL-S6
Marriage/wedding/ring --> 03 CL-S6

So as you can see I will have my CL-S6 for a while, priority first!!

But incase I do get rid of it...
04-05 S2K
03 CL-S6
04-05 TL 6
00-01 Type R/GS-R (still love them)

something definitely RWD, 6 spd and in a dark grey metallic color. i'm tired of this NBP's paint.
so that's a pretty vague description, but hey. it's not happening that soon.
