No fanboying or bashing please I need help with my decision. I am currently looking for a daily awd/rwd car at a dealer to start my credit but not put me in debt for my birthday as a 21st birthday present to myself sadly for me I had my sights set on a wrx sti but most dealers/private sellers who sell these are salvage/accident ridden/too expensive. I'm looking for mainly a daily driver which is why I jumped on the non turbo na cars my current car is an automatic 2004 acura rsx, previous was a honda accord ex 2003 also auto, this will be my first manual car which I need to learn how to shift properly before I get on a motorcycle later this year and to start my credit history up so I know my percentage is going to be high so I prefer to keep under 15k asking price. I'm stuck in between both the s2000 and 350z. I'm 6'0-6'1 and weigh 200 pounds and fit well in my rsx but felt small in a friends 2013 civic si he told me that the s2k is the same if not smaller.
Here is my list of things I need because I will be selling my rsx auto when I am comfortable with the car chosen and shifting in my daily in order to finish off the payment:
-Reliability
-Resale value
-Comfort
-Space (I'm 6'0)
-Good MPG
-Fun
If anyone can help me or add in on suggestions that would be nice. I do eventually plan on selling this car in a year or two after paying for it, so in about 2-3 years it will be gone so resale value is important I think the s2k/honda has better resale value.
