There is no way I would ever buy that Chrysler hunk of ****!

I like the stats on the Subaru but the looks are,,, well... not very distinctive.

Yeah my choice of your three would go to Acura.

I am getting rid of the SRT4 and test drove a Subaru 2.5GT. Its is a nice car.............but I am going to look at a new Acura TL tomorrow night.
Just a little more than the Legacy GT limited, but it has many more features.

Legacy and TSX are quite different cars.

Legacy is 4WD, its larger than TSX.

Both are relieble...

I bet TSX has more options, and after all its a honda :-)

TSX is NA

Legacy is FI

So comparing them in a race is unfair

In looks I like the TSX.

Yesterday, I stopped at a Mercedes dealer with my Dad and we both liked the new 2005 C230 Kompressor Sport Sedan. Sure, for $30k you can get an STi or Evo or R32, but that Merc looked sweet.

I checked out the option list, and if you can live without moonroof, heated seats, and other BS, it can be had for just over $30k.

Yeah, 230K is what I would go with for low $30k. Another choice would be IS300.
If you push towards $40k, there is only one choice (for me), BMW 330i performance sedan.

Acura TL = too big. TSX = NA 4 cylinder?

I'm liking the IS300 more and more. Good 'grown up' looks, and very nice handling...

(re: IS300) yeah, but it's also slow, and cramped inside.

Legacy should be a powerhouse, and a good value as well...
