Here's my 2 cents: why is your cousin selling? If his car is
due for major maintenance (at 180K miles, maybe the timing belt),
it may not be such a deal. Your car is a known quantity. You
could probably fix it's problems for less than trading up to
your cousin's car.
On the other hand, your heart is set on a coupe. Sometimes you
just have to follow your heart. Just be prepared to pay for it.
