Default What would you do?

What's going on HT. I wanted to get a general opinion from its members.

Here's the situation:
I currently picked up a 95 Integra LS Sedan (power everything & 5spd) from my uncle not too long ago. It currently has 209,xxx miles on it. It was mainly used as a commuter car. It mechanically performs really well. My uncle kept up with the maintanence. Only downfall is that the exterior needs some work. There are minor dings and the paint is oxidizing on the hood, rooftop, trunk, and rear driver side door near the window seal. Since I've took over ownership, I have lowered it on Tein Springs and Tokico Struts and riding on GSR Blades w/ Falken Tires.

I've been currently looking at the 1999-2003 Acura TL's as an upgrade. I don't really race or anything so a motorswap in the Integra wouldn't be practical at this moment. Especially for the fact that I'm in school and working to save up to buy a house within the next four or five years. The thing is I love driving the Integra and that's its not too often you see a 4 door with modifications. If you were debating between keeping the Integra and slowly modify it or buying a TL with all the goodies: What would you do?

All opinions welcome.

Well if you don't really want a new car then save your money and keep the DC. If you want a new car then buy the TL.
