Default Have to get rid of my RSX-S...Need some suggestions

Payments are mounting, my job isn't paying any more and I'll soon have to quit, and I'm transferring colleges which will set me back a year and a half. I can no longer continue to pay off my RSX-S without taking out 30 grand in student loans, something I am not willing to do. Und zoo, I must buy a cheaper car. I'm currently looking at a 6th gen ACV6 like my old one that was totalled in a car accident, and then getting a weekend racer in a year or so when I can afford it, such as a Teg or an older (E30) BMW 325iS. I'm in the $10,000-$13,000 range and need a very reliable car that looks good and has some speed. I would much prefer a manual, but that's what my plan for a weekend racer is for. I cruise around in my ACV6 on the weekdays and unleash it in my E30 or G3-G2 Teg or maybe even an MR2. So what do you guys think? Is my plan solid or should I look at something outside of the Accord? I'm just asking here because the basement people are stoopid, and you guys know how happy you all are with your Accords.

Of course, my other options are a GS-R to have a compromise between daily driver and weekend racer, a 5th gen accord coupe to drop an H22A into at a later date, or anything else. Opinions? ideas? Thanks guys.

Chris

GSR. Mod it, and when you've got the $ for a daily driver, make it unstreetable.

It's just a thing I have. I just want the damn Six for the dual exhaust, the valve cover, the badge, the low end, or else I'd buy the EX 4 banger with a 5 speed instead of the LX-V6. I know all about 4 bangers, believe me, and I love Honda fours.

Yeah sure if you give me 15 grand on top of that, we'll call it even. Give me some real responses you bishes or do I have to go to the basement :fawk:

And BTW, I posted at ClubRSX too, just wanted to get a feel for what people here think.

I would get a GS-R, that way you can have a decent daily driver and a decent weekend racer once you get some goods mods on it. Just my .02
