What would you do?
So my dad has been relocated to Taiwan, so he's selling his Lexus, and my brother
is now driving my moms E430 and we now have his 2003 Accord coupe V6. Tonight my dad has told me I have a decision of either selling my tC and keeping the accord or vice versa. Now I love my tC with a passion and everything about it, but I've been driving the accord for the past couple of days and it's 240hp has just got me dying for it, I'm just afraid though when my tC is gone, i'll never forgive myself for selling it. I htink this would be a no brainer, but the Accord is an Auto and my tC is stick and stick is 10 times better. I actually asked my dad about a tranny swap hah!

no actually the V6 accord was i think 23k so it was totally in a different category from my tC, but now the BB price is about equal so i couldve got a civic instead but not a accord coupe

At the end of the day you have plenty of time left to own a fast car... so if that's the only reason you like the Accord better, I see no reason for you to sell the tC. *shrug*
Plus- It's not like you couldn't save money and get a SC or something.

Sport, what if you sell the accord, and get a turbo or SC with some of the loot, kinda like DTRUONG_112's? Speaking of which, DTmind if I ask what you pushin at the wheels with that turbonetics kit you got? Looks sharp man.

The tC is a Toyota, reliablity is not an issue for either of them. I persoanlly think the Accord coupe is ugly as hell but the power is definatley a plus. I'd do what the other people are reccomending and sell the Accord and buy a S/C for the tC.

Though we are all a bit biased, the tC would be my choice for a few reasons. Not too into the Accord coupe's (or the sadan's) styling. Also don't care for the size of the Accord, way too big for my likeing. Either way, go with your instincts and stick with the vehicle that you personally enjoy the most. Remember like you said, stick is ten times better. That would be the decision maker for me...
