Well it's almost that time.... :(

I'm narrowing down my search for my college choice and a part of that decision will be to get rid of the TL to get a new car that would suite my needs in college. I wont be driving much, since I will be living on campus. I would like to get a car that is reliable and economical. Despite my 99 TL being basically both, a headlight bulb alone can cost a pretty penny, the gas costs arent the best but are pretty fair, and I am also having problems with my engine (short block/overhaul) which I wont necessarily get into, but in result I'll need a new car anyway. I'm looking at getting maybe a sporty car, but something that still has the ammentities of a luxury car. I may want my car to be stick as well. Also, leather (black), sunroof, and a nice sound system are necessities...so.....What cars should I look at? I'm figuring on a price range that is anywhere less than about $15,000, but maybe up to $16,000. Anyone have any ideas? I was looking at the RSX-S, Cobalt SS, and SRT-4, but I'm not really sure. Any help would be great. Thanks.

CL-S. Next best thing to a TL-S. It's funny because the description you gave defines our acuras to a T IMO.

of course i'm biased to the cobalt...leather, pioneer system, sunroof, etc...but for 15k you do have a lot of used car options.
