I have a Si w/ Nav coming in next month, should be here early August. I'm now starting to contemplate going with the Hybrid Sedan. With the tax credit applied, the price is not much more than a regular Civic Sedan. Gas keeps going up and up and up and if it hits $4.00 a gallon in the states I would be kicking myself for not going with the Hybrid. I drive about 1000 miles a month on average so I'm just trying to reason this out. Price would be the same for either model (si w/ Nav or HCH) but I would get a tax credit with the HCH. THe thing is I don't know if I want to trade all that performance for mileage. I'm actually going back and forth with this now as I still have some time to ponder

Anyone got any opinions? Either car will be a DD and I'll be getting a weekend car on down the road in a year or two.
