today i was showing my mom the si sedan; even tho im already buying it, it wont be here til march.. while talking to the salesman, i told him one of my complaints is the 139 torque, and he told me "well when are you ever going to be going 120 mph?".. so i dont know wtf he was talking about, but i do know he doesnt know that the si would be slow if it had a 6500 redline, due to the missing torque..

oh, and i also told him im aware im going to have the 3rd gear problem, and he looked at me funny.. i said ya theres a tsb coming out for it soon, the problem is infamous, and he said "ok.." in a way thats like "if you say so"..

dont you hate how you cant talk with salesman about cars? i dont know much about cars, and i still notice..
