thirdly- never rule out a car just cause you think you wont like it. if you told me a month or two ago i would be driving a saturn and loving every minute of it i would slap you. test drive the G6, what do you have to lose? i personally dont like the styling. i know you ruled out 4 doors but i would check out the saab 9-3. saabs are some very well built cars and you wouldnt believe how much fun they are to drive.

i'm a professional as well and even though i am only 19 i have had to drive to potential clients and meet up with execs for lunch. i did all that in my old isuzu. it turns out the hallmark exec had a cammed 02 z06 that he offered to let me take for a spin next time i see him and told me to bring my camaro next time. i wouldnt be too worried about your car reflecting your business cause thats not quite what people look at when they see you.
the only big honda reliability issues i've heard of recently (in the last 5 years) are with the automatic transmissions. you know of any specific one's i should look out for?

as far as the g6, i did have a friend who was looking at new cars recently, who's opinion i somewhat trust, tell me that he looked at g6's and was dissappointed. but you guys convinced me, i will go investigate for myself (hopefully this week). however, i priced one out and with all the options to put it on par with the accord it comes out at either just under 27 or 28 grand.
