Man I’ve been all over the web, and just can’t figure out what I want. RSX? TSX? `04, `05, `06?
I’ve got “around” $13-$16K to work with.
Been looking at Ratings/Reviews, TCO (True cost to Own), etc., etc., etc.
I think I’m probably going to be A LOT more comfortable in a TSX. I’m getting old, had a lot of surgeries (4 on the back/spine – 4 on the right [ACCELERATOR] ankle/leg), and I think I need the armrest (no RXS’s w/armrest – correct??). I’ve (pretty much) decided on an Auto. Trans – like I said, I’m getting old, and really just not into a whole lot of “extra work” any longer.
Speed/power/performance/quality (<<-- w/one exception-->>)maintenance-repair/resale are not really issues for me (not with an Acura) – and I understand that either model will do what I want it to – which is basically to commute, travel, etc. Not looking to “race” anyone or set any land-speed records.
MPG’s is a consideration, as is insurance cost. TRANSMISSION QUALITY IS A HUGE CONCERN for me. Though I am absolutely in love with the shifters on these vehicles, I am not buying the transmission for how it “looks”.
Somebody help me out here. Like I said, I’ve been all over the internet, but I don’t believe half of what I read online – and I check the other half out. Hoping some “good guys” here will help steer me straight!
Thanks in advance …
