well here in canada theres no dealership markup. i got a $500 discount on the car since i got my 7thgen from the same dealership, that car was on lease. i got fogs and rear splash guards as the only accessories. OTD the FG2 is like 32K Canadian but i'm financing for 5 years with $7.35 interest.

Your car looked very nice Xenin, but this is a great choice. I had a chance to test drive one and I loved it. Congrats!

Ugh, I've never liked the 8th gen... only the Si!! Good thinking about upgrading to an Si and not downgrading to a DX/LX/EX

You won't be leaving us now, would you? I'm gonna miss that girl on the avatar!

thanks. i'm thinking about smoking the rear turn/reverse signals, that would look hot. i wouldnt powdercoat the stock rims as i'm probably not going to use them very much and it would be very hard to colour match the center cap. i'm still waiting to see what lip kits come out but i like the J's Racing front lip. dont know what i'll do for suspension but Tokico has the D-Spec in development for the FG2.
