Current IS - no, new one coming out
New IS - No way, no manual tranny option for the IS350, at least from what we've been told so far

E320 - I wouldn't want it, just not my kind of interior, the C55 AMG interior is nice though :p

TSX - Not bad, simple car with a simple purpose

Why the hell would anyone still want to get an IS300?

QFT.

good price

Your choice is based on the price of what you are buying, not the object?

33K OTD is a good price? What fvcking moron would think that's a good price? An IS250/350 is cheaper/around the same price.

33K is way too much for an is300, it's a lame duck model and the new IS250 will cost the same if not less, while sacrificing nothing in performance.

TSX is a decent car, it got revised for 2006 and adds ~10 HP and more features. Cost is low, design still fresh. Try to get a manual if performance is a concern, the automatic is significantly slower than the manual.

2001 E320 old body style, kind of weak engine. Your listed price of 28K OTD seems high for old design.

The E320 seemed to drive a lot better than the tsx. The tsx felt weak (auto). I can't drive manual (yet). Also, the E320 price seemed pretty reasonable since there are only 30k miles, looks great, and got it down from 29.95k without fees.
