I am not a fan of the SI myself I would take the SI older Coupe's. I am saving up for the New Accord Coupe V6 Manual I want that but 2 more yrs and I can then get it ugg. If you really want it I say go for it, I wasn't impressed with them at all, I just want the seats myself.

I will agree I have seen 2 SI's so far and they have been white, one lady was driving one and then some other guy was driving another one. My bud who has a 99 SI is warming up to the SI but I dunno they just don't do anything for me I don't see the point in paying more for 160 HP and higher insurance and a hatch then just go with a EX Coupe and have a good car lower insurance and save a little money. I wasn't expecting a SI to come out again but I think they could have done better I mean even the Prelude puts out 200 HP. But it all comes down to taste.

Invoice for a Type S is 21,650. Ive seen a lot of ppl get out the door on a Type S with no accessories for about 22,3. Save the extra money. Its worth it.

Financially you're way better off staying with your car, cause everytime you change cars when you still oweon them you lose money...but if you really want the si, I'd say get it at 17k(yes they sell them at that price)
RSX-S is another 4-5K more (if you get it at 17K which you should have no prob) the dealers realized that 19k was too much
