My situation?

lazyboi808 · 04-17-2007, 07:02 AM

*****************UPDATE******************

Just showing my first post up here, an the situation I am in...

2003 S2000 12,323miles $23999 used= Insurance $1200 6months
2007 Civic SI *coupe or sedan* $21-23k new= Insurance $900 6months
2007 Subaru WRX TR $23499 new=Insurance HAHAHAHA $1800 6months

Now, I bought an 2005 VW Jetta GLI, on impulse last year, cause of the smokin deal I got, well I owned nothing but honda before, an I mean EVERYONE. 3 Crx's, 1 Ef hatch, 2 eg's, 1 ek, 1 del sol, an every motor swap, combo, turbo, all mota there is, an tried out the Dubs. Well , they impressed me, but its just not workin out, just something about honda i cant get away, so...was wondering what you guys thought, without being biased or anything being a 8th gen civic site, what the best was?

Here is the kicker.....I owe about 20k on the GLI right now, an the dealers said they would give me 15-18k for the car, so some neg. would be added...an please, dont say just keep the car, even though i would not lose money, i have to get out of it, its auto LOL....need manual...lol.

Thanks guys

Judging by your desire to get out of this car, your love for Honda, and the insurance prices you quoted, it sounds like a no brainer.

Yeh...Si FTW

**ImTheVoiceOfGod** · 04-17-2007, 07:35 AM

Go with the SI for a few reasons.
1) You already know you love Hondas.
2) Insurance is way cheaper than the S2000
3) Dont get a WRX unless you can afford the STI.

Get the SI. It's a cheeper car and insurance is cheeper.

***Special Ringpop*** · 04-17-2007, 02:35 PM

You need to drive them each and see which car fits you the best, regardless of what others think.

Based on what you said, though, the Si seems like the most logical choice.

Though the S2000 is a sex machine <3

To be honest with you, I used to be impressed with the s2k. But I think after Fast and the Furious, the sex appeal has gone down. Also, you should see how many old geezers over 60 who drive it (no offence to old men).

Jardiniboy · 04-19-2007, 12:17 AM

Hey lazyboi808, what part of HI r u from? My g/f is from Kihei, Maui. Her brother is in the auto industry back in Maui, maybe I could find out if he knows someone that can hook you up with an Si at invoice (if you live around there).

BTW: Get an Si-Dan NBP, but that's just my biased opinion!

then dont trade it in- sell it in the newspaper for what you owe. try the nickel if your area has one...

Bootsie · 04-20-2007, 05:49 PM

I would go with the sedan, you never know what the future holds. And even if you never use the back seat it is still one of the hottest cars I have ever seen.
