I have been looking at MS3 and the SI  
after driving both a bit…  
The MS3 is just meh…Too much for a daily and I don’t want a turbo that dies  
SI is very nice, I feel like vtec should engage a touch lower and the dash seems to have a wide open area.

So, I am likely buying a gti.  
After driving all three (dealer test drives and extended private owned test drives)  
I think I would like the gti best as a dd

There are still some brand new 06 GTOs sitting on dealer lots around the US. I bet you could grab one for just a shade over 25k.

you said you never had any complaint about the Tib, why dont wait a couple months and get a base genesis coupe? 10yr/100k FTMFW!!! You will not want a MS3 for a DD very Loud and rough ride but a blast to drive… Civic Si or genesis coupe, what do the bmw 1 series start at? Altima coupe’s start around 22k… 3/36k though =(

If you’re only going to keep the car for 1 year you’d be kind of foolish to buy brand new.

You know how there’s that big step change in value as soon as you drive it off the lot? Yeah…

I’d look for something 2 years old with low mileage and all the options. 25k and 1 year later it’s conceivable that you could sell it for what you paid. Still be under warranty the whole time too…

Here’s one:
