2008 SI Sedan Canadian Buying Experience/Purchase Price

alan · 04-12-2008, 08:16 PM

Hi Everybody,

I'm considering buying a 2008 civc si sedan. I'm in Canada and the salesman said 28,500 without tax. I'm just wondering if there's anybody that could share what they got it for and what extra's, if any, they were able to squeeze out of the dealerships.

Also, how much insurance on this car compared to another car? Considering I'm only 23 and in Alberta with unbelievably high rates.

Thanks everyone!!

My coupe cost $25679 plus freight and tax, but i got a great deal and had to fly to vancouver (from edmonton) to get it.

I just bought a coupe a couple of weeks ago for abit lower then that price... but also live in Vancouver. I wasn't able to get any extras but the dealer was offering the sedan for even less. But that was because they had a few on the lot.

I thought Canadians didn't get the Si Sedan. Only the CSX Type-S?

2008 they brought the coupe, the demand for it was higher then the csx.

Cool fact though, the JDM civic is based of the canadian acura, not the other way around.

Japanese actually are buying a rebadged CDM (Canadian Domestic Market).

Oh, and for the OP, the isurance for me is about $250 per month (I am 22) but the insurance on the sedan Si was about $45 dollars cheaper per month. For me the 45$ more was worth having the coupe.
