Soem guy has an SE-R at work. It is nice on the inside, leather with embroidered SE-R on the seats. I don't like the look though and they don't come in a coupe just sedan.

Yeah a friend of mine is gettin' an SE-R Spec V in the spring time. It's gonna be DAMN sweet. I've got a question for you guys, is there another car out there (in the sport compact class) that has a bigger "bang for your buck" than the new SE-R and SE-R Spec V??? From what I've seen there isn't.... I mean even the new SiR hatch (yep I'm canadian) will be more expensive and have less horsepower! Your thoughts??

Front end - NICE
Rear end - plain and cheap looking
Interior - NICE
Engine - NICEEEEEEE

I sat in one and played around with the 6speed at an autoshow on saturday... fealt very nice inside and the shifter was the only 1 that compared with the RSX's smoothness and quality

i was going to get a SE-R(the regular one with 165hp and an auto), but the thing was too noisy on the interstate, i mean the civic isn't actually a luxury car with a silky smooth ride, but it was a lot better than the SE-R.

Slick my girl has the same SE-R Auto and it is not loud at all. It does have lots of power though, even though it is an auto. She drove the spec-v but did not get it cause she did not like the seats. Too bad I did not get it for her. She would have had to settle for the freaken seats.

Why do you think they got the urge? Can't draw in people with good cheap quality cars, so they gotta pump up the hp. Why doesn't Honda and Toyota have to do this? Just saying never been a fan of Nissan no matter how much hp they put into their cars.

See page 78-79 in the April SCC issue I got in the mail today. $16,900 for a 2002 SE-R Spec V

180 lb/ft torque @4400
175 hp @ 6000
2488cc displacement
0-60 7.4 seconds[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG]
1/4 mile 15.4 seconds[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG]

still not a bad deal for 16,900
