'06 Accord
It's comfortable, quiet, gets over 30mpg, and keeps the miles off the Camaro.

I completely agree with that, I had a focus for a little while between my '87 TA and my '95 and I could not stand driving that thing, I missed all the power

That's why I got a GTP. It gets alright gas mileage but has some passing power when I need it. Now I want to upgrade that and still don't have my T/A anywhere near done.
