Default Might have to replace the s2k

Yup
Wife is having a baby
need more seats and may have to get rid of the S
she wants me to get a 4 door

i was looking at an acura tsx...k24, 6 speed, etc etc seemed pretty nice to me

or an acura rsx type s...k20, 6 speed

i know none of these compare to the s2000 but i want
something fun to drive but not downgrading too much
if you know what i mean

plus i dont think i can afford an sti or evo
my idea is to get lower payments than the s2000

any thoughts
feedback

Thanks
-Rick

I personally own one, and LOVE it, car is very spacious for what it is. Has plenty of pick up (TipTronic Shifting) and is very sleek looking

or an acura rsx type s...k20, 6 speed
Might as well keep the s2k, this car has 0 back seat, Im 5'-9" and was VERY uncomfortable back there, I would think you would grow tired of crawling back there for the young one...

Good Luck

I would go for the TSX. They drive great, look good and are made by Honda! I am considering one as a 3rd car, as both my fiance and I drive 2 doors.

With those two choices, the TSX.

But you're limiting yourself a lot there with only two options.

I just picked up a "k20a2" Type-S and I love it..its a quick little car but everyones right..the back seat is not very spacious at all.My friend go back there the other day and smacked his head on the back glass...He's only like 5'6". Its also 2-door which is a hassel getting the kid in and out(know from experience).BUT the payment will more than likely be substantially higher on the TSX.Are you trying to stay in the HONDA family?

OH and CONGRATS on the new addition to your family.

ok that's what i thought i was leaning towards the tsx anyway
are they hard to find in the sub 20k range?

anything else that can compare to the tsx?

i was looking at an 04/05 wrx or rx-8 also

thanks
Rick

Forget the RX-8 with the child...WRX and TSX are both good possibilities but you'll be hard pressed to find either around $20K with "decent: miles on them.I've usually seen the TSX's goung for around $24k...but then again i havent checked everywhere...Im sure there are some good deals out there...just gotta hunt for them.Try Autotrader.com

EDIT:: I stand corrected ...they're out there..hope this helps
