New car... maybe??? Help? yes? please?

[Swonder67]

OK kids, here's the deal. I am on the verge of a new car. My car right now (see my sig) is about a year and a half old. I absolutely regret not having manual. (yes, it is auto. ) So I am considering buying a 2004 Honda Accord EX V6 coupe 6 speed with Navigation and leather.

Do you think this is a good idea?

The thing is, My cars before this have been coupes, and my Maxima was the first 4 door I ever owned. I kinda miss the coupe. Also, I'd be getting Navigation and XM. Navigation is prtty cool, but XM I am a big fan of. If I tried to do XM on my Maxima, I'd either have to get that retarded little box thingy on my dash somewhere, or Redo my entire stereo (because I have BOSE)

Any thoughts on this??

new accords are awesome. they're one of the few FWD cars i would consider over a max. If it were me though i'd wait on a 6 speed Acura TL

My buddy has the new 04 TL, and I like it alot, but again, it goes back to the coupe thing. I really dont like 4 doors. If I could have it my way, I'd a G35 coupe...

I've always loved driving a coupe too and the Maxima was my first four door sedan. About two weeks ago, I had an aftermarket suspension installed and it feels like I'm back to driving my Integra only the ride quality is better. Handles so much better now. Anyway, think there's any way you can trade your Max in for a 6spd version? I'd do that because having four doors is really nice when you have to move stuff/people around. Then, to get the feel of a coupe, get an aftermarket suspension and lower it.

I was thinking of a 6 speed Maxima (oh the power), but the style I like is the current one I own (2003) I hate the new style. And I am totally against a used car.
