not to be rude, but I think almost everybody is overbudgeting their choices... My parents bought an 05 Aucra TL A-spec, and after taxes at 6.5%, was out the door at just over 43 grand... a regular non navi TL (aka basic as it gets) is still going to be about 35ish... TSX hits the 30G wall before taxes, EX V6 Accords are RIGHT there if you are lucky... If it were me hounding, i'd harass my parents to save for the TL (although an A-spec is WAYYY different than a reg. TL, so the driving experence is very jaded), but if not that, go for the Accord EX V6, or a Solara Coupe... Ive driven all the mentiond above, and the solaras are very, very compormised cars for the mony you pay. I'd chose that if the wall was a strict 30G's...
