What would your 'other' car be (not dreamcar)
So, I really like my TSX, but I don't know that I love it. Granted, it has some dings, paint scratches, a rattle here and there, but it's pretty nice.
I've been thinking about getting into something else recently, and these are my interests on the high end
Acura TL 06/08
Audi A4 3.0 quattro (S4 if I can afford)
BMW E46 330 coupe (ZHP), or 330xi sedan
Mercedes C230/240
On the low end
98-00 Civic hatch (Ek2?)
99-00 CRV SE (with engine drop)
96 CL 3.0, or 96 Accord coupe ex v6
late 90s Integra GSR
So, lots of people like to think of a dream car, but for me, I think about cars that aren't as nice as mine.  Anyone else?

I like your selection.
I would say C300, IS250/350 or A4, Camero SS would be on my other car list. Higher than the TSX price wise, but not by a whole lot.
On the lower end, I would say.... Tacoma, Accord Coupe, and Altima Coupe.

There's something about mid/late 90's Acuras/Hondas that have a pretty classy design. Even the Accords I think had a very simplistic yet dignified look.
If I could find a 95 Legend V6 coupe manual, in good condition, I'd be all over it. One of the best consumer car designs I think I've ever seen.
edit: Damn, search and I will find,

i would love to part out back to stock (except for some parts) and get an Evo X
that way i would have the tsx for high gas mileage and comfort and the evo for track days.

TSX of the Month Winner
|
Other than the build in navi, bluetooth, usb audio, memory seat + mirror, M3 steering wheel and a bit more power, my 6yr old 100k km TSX still drive & looks as good as my 1yr old E92 335i. So I dunno what else I will pick other than TSX(sometimes may have an impulse to trade for the new TSX and replace the grill). If I dun need to ride the kids around then I may want a S2K or a 911.
Back on the days(04) when I shop for the replacement on my Prelude, my criteria was below 60k CND, 4dr, MT and not made in US. So I seriously considered the following:
IS300
G35
B6 A4 3.0
E46 330i
Mazda 3 GT
Of course I end up go for the best... TSX 6MT, the only regret is not wait for another 4mth and get the 05 with Navi

Currently my 'Other' car is a 93' Del Sol Si.
I want to upgrade to a 370z when I have monies. OR a NSX if I can find one that hasn't been bastardized.
