Just picked up my new car tonight…

Nighthawk Black Pearl 2007 Civic SI

I absolutely LOVE it. it was everything i was looking for, economical, affordable, quick, stylish… shift great, handles phenominal, accelerates smooth…

now i know what the honda guys have been raving about the k20a for so long for… what i like most about this car is honda’s obvious attention to detail. I bought it from Lia Honda, and I had a great buying experience. they cut me a very good deal on the car.

pics to come!

Also, i should mention that during my car buying experience (which this is my first NEW car), i went to Northtown Subaru to test drive a wrx. unfortunately, the new rex was out of my price range (with the options i wanted)… HOWEVER, to anyone looking for a new subaru, I highly recommend that you go to Northtown and ask for Jeff (SI01 on nyspeed). Jeff was extremely helpful and a pleasure to work with. Had I decided on a Subaru, I definitely would have gone through Jeff.

Nice cars, handle well, but suprisingly, not that great gas mileage.

super build quality, love the fit and finish inside.

Please don’t take your car in for service at Lia. They…eh. ew. not good.

But good purchase, and those K-series engines are some of the best 4 cylinders around. Buttery smooth.

Get some pics up Sam! I’m a fan of the gauges on the new SI.

Also, thanks for the kind words, I appreciate it.

Very nice car. I was looking at those a little while ago, in the end I needed a bigger car but I really like the new civic si’s.

Like any performance oriented car if you keep your foot on it the MPG will suffer…
