Default new 05 si sat 18 05


Tommorow my dad is co signing for me to get a new 05 civic si. I was just wondering. what is a good site for body kits, hoods, etc. and performance **** for my new si . I looked around on ebay and i cant find much. and is it totally diff with switching gears in a new si? i noticed that the shifter is in a new place. I was just wondering if its uncomfortable or anything? i never got to drive one i will when i go the buy it though. Just help me out if you can. thanks!

odd to look at for some, but its in a better position, right there for you to bang away on the gears. i liked mine, but that's home in the states, im driving a Renault Clio V6 now.

as far as body kits go you wont get much love here fr them. maybe some recommendation for a lip. Id rock a Mugen body kit, but they are pricey but have been wind tunnel tested to reduce coefficient of drag.

some popular mainstream websites are
http://www.nopionline.com &lt;-------kind of pricey
http://www.jegs.com
http://www.summitracing.com
http://www.jdmshit.com
http://www.kingmotorsports.com

also try the sponsors market place
http://www.hondamarketplace.com

Why not drive it before you buy it?

Also drive it around for a while before you decide what you want to do with it. Your ideas might change after having it for more than just your initial impression.

what are you paying for it (before taxes etc.) I looked at one today and the sales guy was desperate (or so it seemed) and offered it to me for $16,500 plus tax and title good deal? For a car with a MSRP of $19,7ish I don't think can say no.

yeah you can get the current Si's for a really good price because they dont sell well, you might of wanted to wait till like november when they release the new Si.

i know people who have gotten the si for 14,900K

if you can negotiate and you want an si then your set
