Default Should I order SI with all the trims?

Hi all, adding up all the trims for the Si takes it up to almost 26k. Can I get the bodykits done elsewhere for a cheaper price? Is it worht $996 for the 17" alloy wheels or am I better off getting them elsewhere?

Yes as in i am better off getting some of the stuff elsewhere?

I can do with some white rims!

What would be worth getting from the dealer?

How useful is the Navi system?

If you know where you are going most of the time, you have to be an idiot to buy navi. Along the same line I wouldnt buy a bunch of extra crap on a car that is having a hot release. Just wait a little while and you will be able to pick up Honda oem stuff cheaper after the car has been on the market for a while. Look at the ep3 and how you can pick and chose which HFP parts you want for your car, ie maybe the rims and spoiler, but not the sideskirts. In summation I would get the new Si in its cheapest form and pick what I wanted down the road, lots of dealer or Honda add ons will really add to the price.

One huge advantage for a young person wanting to outfit his car with OEM or Honda Access and HFP parts is that if you do it at the time of purchase it can become a part of the financed price of the car.

Yeah, that! Unless you have extra $$$$ to shell out, thats the best way to finance it with the car, otherwise you'll end up maxing out your creditcard..
Also they're OEM so you wouldnt have to worry about fitment issues plus OEM still looks great....

I wish I had done a HFP package on my EP3 (minus the wheels cuz they look fugly) when I purchased it...
