if they are civic enthusiasts or honda in the price range specifically i dont see how.
either your poor, or you dont have a choice.
no enthusiast buys a R18 cause they are amazing... they make an exception. join a forum and who knows.
only excuses can explain...
i chose the Si specifically. drove the GTI, STI, EVO. i have experience with the motor from my swapped EP so i had bias. dont like finicky turbos, apreciate the K power band. STI/EVOs were boring for the money for me to make switch from honda aside from the power which i dont need anymore trouble if i want my job to keep me on their insurance. i dont want to say i drive a VolksWagon plus im yet to see a reliable one. i felt like i saved alot of money and have navi and everything i love, its like honda hooked me up for 20k. why in the hell as a long time civic/Honda lover would i buy a R18... i would wrather have Fit cause then at least i could get the top model for the price.
plus alot of these people on here in 5 years will be on another forum when they can afford something else especially the R18 guys. not me, ive been driving Si's for a long time and it seems that honda has matured the brand with me. i cant refuse. being a honda lover i save money, drive a car made to be fun everyday, win on resale every time and own a car from a hell of a car maker.
