Ok, I drive a 18tqa which is kinda --ahem-- a dog when it comes to performance and refinement.  I'm assuming we're talking sticks.  My preference is an auto so I would go with the smooth delivery of the 2.8.

I've noticed the price of the 18t's aswell.  I've seen 2000 and 2001 in the $5-6k range.  Some good deals out there.
