My buddy owns an 08 tsx with a 6-spd. It has over 100k and still running strong. No mods done to it. Just regular maintenance. Thats why I'm considering getting one.

Have any of guys owned or knew someone that owned a mini cooper s? I like minis except i don't know how reliable they are. Right now for fwd, its between the rsx type s and the mini (if it has good reliability)

How Reliable are 09 TSX's? JD Power rates it pretty low. Hear it has a ton of quality issues. Any input guys?

Don't ever touch a mini out of warranty. especially an S model.

One had his A/C compressor go out at 150K miles, which is a fairly common issue, but both cars were very reliable over a combined mileage of 300K miles. Interiors held up great.

Sounds like you want a subaru. What's even better is the Saabaru. Pre 06. Cheaper than WRX in insurance. Can either get the 4 speed auto or 5 speed manual. Both engine and drivetrain are out of a WRX. They look better too IMO.
I'm sure a cobbsport flash will awake her up to your requests.

20K buys a heck of a nice SAAB. If you are living NY, there's a strong SAAB network.
