what ? maybe, if they have never been in one, or if they know nothing about cars. I suppose you bought your Lexus for a reason, but if you think you would enjoy the RSX more, now is your chance.

Get the RSX. It's not a luxury car, but at least you'll get some youth out of yourself. Fuel economy isn't the greatest, but it's decent for what it is.

Sell the Acura and use the money to pay off your credit cards that are above 9% APR and then put the rest into a Roth IRA or Roth 401K...unless you are already a trust fund kid.

If you sell either car, I'm sure you're going to be kicking yourself. Why not drive them for a few weeks then decide...

I've driven an RSX-S and it was loud, and not very fast. Also no luxury, it's got leather but very basic. They are good cars but very different from a Lexus. I wouldn't worry about gas prices. It's not like the difference is that much. How much will it really save? $50 a month?
