Default My new Civic Sedan Si



Pretty civilized deal, Kaiser Honda in Downtown LA was only marking it up $1,000 (compared to as much as $5,000 at Miller Honda in Culver City). Maybe I did not get quite as much for my trade-in (2003 Accord LX w/63k miles) as I would have liked, but I did not get completely raped and feel the price I got was fair.

All the employees were VERY sad to see this one leave the showroom, "I didn't get a chance to drive it yet!" I took delivery with 6 miles on the clock, I put 2 of them on during the test drive.

The only options I got was a liner for the trunk and a cargo net. I will snag a Mugen rear sway bar when they become available.

Of course it all works great, the engine redlines at 8k and the brakes could stop a heart attack. I am still getting used to 6 speeds, but I am willing to work on that.

Very nice, I was thinking about the sedan, but went with the 2 door last night. I already have a 4 door car.

The dealers are getting one or two Sedan Si's per month so they will not be flooding the market.

I agree that the coupe is better looking but I need the extra doors for hauling kids. And the coupe has some visibility issues at the rear quarters.

The coupe doesn't have the little windows on the side front either. I'm seriously thinking about a 4dr Si. Plus it would be nice to have a car for development work.
