To be quite honest, I hate the way VW's exterior look--it's too damn square for my taste. The interior, now that's a different story... :thumbsup:

Yay, so the Celica is out of the picture now. I asked a couple of my girl friends and they all suggested the RSX because the Celica is played out and apparantly its a girl's ride (I'd agree only if this was the Celica GT we're talking about, the GTS and TRD is a man's ride no doubt). I'm still contemplating wether to spend less money and get the RSX (approx. $16,000 for the 02-03 Type S in Canada) and spend the rest of my money on a nice set of 18's and a sound system OR spend a little more cash for a A4 1.8T or G35 (approx. $18,000-20,000).

I appreciate the community's inputs, very informative =D
tekneeqs Reviewed by tekneeqs on . $20,000 to spend.. What car to buy? Hi all, I have about 20Gs to spend (that's Canadian currency) and looking for a compact to mid size car. I'm thinking about the 2002-2003 Acura RSX Type-S, 2000-2002 Toyota Celica GTS, or 2002+ Infiniti G35 Sedan (the coupe is a dream-car, but its too expensive =/). I was also considering the Audi A 1.8T and Cadillac CTS, but this isn't really my style, they look like they should be driven by someone older. Just here to hear other's opinions on these cars or any other, so if Rating: 5
