Picky friend needs a used car. Recommendations?

My one caution will be with the RSX. My older sister has driven nothing but Integras since the first model year. With each generation change she liked it more and more, until her RSX. In general she found the materials quality, comfort, performance, and overall "feel" to be cheapened and lessened from what she was used to.

She found her car!!!
Thanks for everyone's input.
She found a great deal on a 2004 Acura TSX. Everything that she wanted, except it was a 4-door instead of 2.
BTW, does anyone know if this is a stock body kit, or is it an aftermarket kit?

I'm glad the TSX worked out for her. It is a solid car that is luxurious enough and durable enough to last her for a long long time. Women love value, and that car is a great value. I knew she would go for a slightly more mature and grown up car than the rsx. I also knew that good deals can be found on manuals.
Find your way over to acurazine. Tons of mods to look into. Upgrading the rear sway bar would be one of my first.

The TSX fell through. So, instead...
She got a 2005 Lexus IS300!!!
Dunno if she's gonna join the CL family, but she's happy with the new ride.
We believe it's the Sport Design IS300. Can someone confirm?
She wanted the alcantara interior, but she's happy with the perforated leather with gray piping.

Nah. The head and taillights look "normal."
Perhaps it's just the leather seat upgrade. It has perforated leather, a sunroof, and manual tranny. I think those are the only upgrades, but it does have some of the Sport Design features such as the black grill...

This particular car was an '05 with only 27k miles (a lease return). KBB is $26k, and she got it for $23k OTD, including extended 5yr/100k-mile warranty, and 3.9% APR.
