Sold the Si, Taking Deliver of my Type R in a few hours...
Well I have the Si sold for $19750.00. I think it's been sold for too little and the wife is not too happy about it, but oh well I guess. I will taking delivery of my Type R in a few hours from now. You guys think I sold the Si for too little?
You could have got a little more.
I sold my 00 Si last year for $13,200 (not stock) and only 23k original miles.
Edit: Didn't see your last post. You didnt lose much, but might have got more for it.

I realize I could have got more. I have had it up for sale on forums for weeks now with no action though. I have seen others on here asking 18,999 for a stock 07 Si too with no action yet. Been looking on ebay too and saw a few auctions that the reserve was not met and didn't sell. So for those reasons and the fact that I already left a deposit on a Type R, I let it go for that much. Hopefully I won't regret it later...
Thank you, some reassurance. I know I will love the car. It just feels weird getting rid of a brand new car and getting one thats 9 years old. No warranty make me worried.

Why? This car is solid man, I was reading a thread about someone's review of the Lancer Evo 8 after 75k, and the things they listed off (and other Evo drivers seem to put up with) that were problems/problematic. Personally, what they listed I never would have tolerated, esp from a car that sells for $30k new! Not to mention, Honda's don't suffer from those same ailments.
I don't know how those Evo drivers were able to just shrug off things as acceptable. Like windshields cracking and the "weak" 4th gear in the MR transmissions.
Let me see if I can find that review and quote it.

I sell them for a living. You did fine. No remorse.

In words it sounds stupid.... but once you drive it it'll make sense, a lot of sense.

Mods or not, the price sounds about right. You can get a brand new one for just a little more, and I don't know too many people who would pay as much for a used car as they would for a new one.
Thanks for all the support and responses.
Luckily the R is garaged at my house and in a police compound at work. I will take pics and post them later in another thread, but if you want sneak peeks look at locash's ITR for sale thread. Thats the one I bought. It will be washed up tomorrow when I register it and get an alarm put in.
Oh and now I have the R in my garage!
