Default Trying to decide what to do about an SI..

I dropped by the honda dealership, and they had a 2004 si for $14,900 brand new. Took it for a spin and I liked it a lot, never having driven one before.

The thing is I drive an ls teg with about 110k miles on it, car drives great. It's fully paid off, and the only expense is my insurance payment. I don't really "need" a new car, but after my down payment, and trade in...my payments will be like $180/month for 48 months on the SI...this isn't bad at all, and the insurace quote I got is less than I'm paying now.

So I'm torn, I would like a new car, but I'm not sure if I should get it or not. I mean the teg could technically have some problem in the near future...and I would need to get a new car anyway...but too late to get the 15k sticker price.

I guess the point is I'm trying to save for law school next fall, my current car drives fine, but I can afford the payments on the new one, and should have it paid off after 2 years.

Need some direction hear fellas...thanks in advance.

Get the new Si now if the price is right. At least you would be problem free for the next three years. That can put your mind at peace.
