there you go get an XB that way you and flippin awesome could be the best of friends.


You'd kill yourself in a 350Z

Acura TSX

I was about to trade-in my wrx for one of these. TSXs have good power, 6-speed, HIDs, Leather, all the Acura goodies. And they look good.

CE28n, If you want 6spd and HIDs, you most likely are looking into a sports car or a luxury car with "sporty" features. I'll just blurt out some other cars randomly but dunno if they have the stuff you are looking for.

Altima SE-R
Sti (why not...)
Evo XI MR(the dark side haha)
used S2000 (that has 6spd and HIDs)
Miata
RX-8 (no 6spd i think)
Saturn Ion Redline
Chevy Cobalt SS
SRT-4
Ford Mustang GT(F.O.R.D. 'nuff said and no 6 spd)
used Ford Focus SVT (no HIDs i think and no 6spd)
350Z ( I wouldn't.. Everybody has one. Plus i'd rather keep my dads 240)
G35 (same reason as 350Z)
Pontiac GTO (this is a 6spd with a V8 with actual handling. Dun remember if it had HIDs tho. In addition you can be like Rhys hehe)
Mini Cooper S (See Francos post)


Well if worse comes to worse, get a car with a 6spd and install the HIDs yourself via a kit. i'd rather have the car come with the tranny. Its easier (I think) to replace the lamps compared to a tranny.
