Pops getting new car. 15-18k to spend, go!
If you had 15-20k to spend on a used car, what would you get?
Requirements: Leather, tech options (nav, bluetooth, etc) minimum 30mpg highway, preferably 87 octane recommended, 4 drs, no AWD as it will bring down mpg which he's a stickler for.
I wish he would get a 3g TL, but for whatever reason he's not a fan.

Just convince him to get a 3G TL Type S. You are 27, you can do it.

A loaded 8th gen Accord sounds right for him. Heck, even a loaded 7th gen.

Sounds like a Jetta Sportwagen is right up his alley

Someday, an RS6 Avant+
I was going to say he is a "cars are for point A to B only appliance" type guy, so maybe a newer Accord or Camry?

Thanks for the input everyone. I will pass on the suggestions. Surprised no one has mentioned the 2g tsx
I have also finally converted him to give an 07-08 3g tl a look. For the 15-18k they're going for, you just cant beat it across the board in my book, but I know i'm biased.

2024 Honda Civic Type R
And, really, just look at Acura.
Sonata, Camry, Fusion, Accord, and Jetta/Passat are better options.

They've gone off the rails.

The interior of fusion, sonata, and camry leave a lot of be desired IMO. All look quite cheap to me; (nav on fusion looks SNES esque).
2012 Camry XLE interior also screams "blah".
Moving on
