This article is not to steer new owners away from the car but to help existing owners.
The girl in the Accord mentioned loves her car, but is so annoyed by the transmission issue she is at a loss.
I know many Si owners feel the same way.
The fix is supposed to be out first quarter but no one can provide solid proof.
If I were in the market I would hold off until we knew Honda will honor and fix the issues.

GAAAHHH!!! I just don't know! I kind of NEED a car relatively soon so waiting a lot of months is not the first thing I wanted to do (though, I may be waiting 2 months for an Si once placing an order anyway...)
I am quite a perfectionist and I know a 3rd gear popout would drive me insane!
Thing is, My RSX-S never had any of these tranny issues... sometimes 2nd would be notchy only when cold and when the moon was in a waning crescent phase lol... none of that bothered me. But 3rd gear popping out would annoy the crap outta me.
I really don't know what else in the same class as the Si that I could afford at this point in time. I really want a car that I can count on driving for at least 10 years.
Help!
