i dont think it takes a k20 to go 93 mph. but they are fun to play with. nh4442 had his turbo’d at 3,000 miles. it was nice and comfortable to drive around, and pretty quick for a street car. pretty expensive aftermarket for that stuff though. ---

Don’t trade the EX for the Si unless: She put a huge down payment on the EX to help eat the “instant drive off the lot” depreciation. Or doesn’t mind a huge jump in monthly payments otherwise… ---

Or doesn’t mind a huge jump in monthly payments otherwise… she threw about 7g’s down on the EX, her payments are $299 a month now, im expecting to go to 315-350 at the most… christ, i seen BMW’s with 300 a month payments ---

Don’t even bother…I tried trading in my accord for a new si, I would have been paying over $400 a month for like 72 months. Whatever she owes on the ex, they will tack onto the payments for the si. If she really wants to get rid of it, sell it, don’t trade it in. Best to wait though. ---

7K down on a civic is pretty decent. If the payments will only go up like $20 a month, that’s not bad. What Magicalmarge said is true tho. Lets say the ex cost 18K after taxes, u put 7k down on it. You’d end up with 11K to finance. Next u have to consider what the trade in blue book value for the car would be. Lets say they’d give u 9k for it as a trade in toward the Si. That means you’ve lost 2k from trade in value to amount owed on the car…so ur 20k Si would end up costing u 22k…not much over a 5 or 6 yr period tho. Something to think about ---

civic came out to be 21k total… even without NAV i think 300 a month is pretty damn expensive but o well… and her insurance is 560 a month… which is INSANE!!! my girl and her mom are on the same insurance policy and her mom only gives her 50 bucks a month… her mom says that she really only owes 29 a month but gives 50 anyways… I think this is straight BULLSHIT! her mom has had over 4 DUI’s in her lifetime and my girlfriend hasnt even had a parking ticket for christ sake… If she goes onto her stepdad’s policy ( which i been telling her to do for the past 4 months) she’ll only be paying 50 a month… I beleive that she is paying so much because of her mom (granted the DUI’s are off the record now) but i still think it makes a difference… my girlfriend is getting fucked out of that deal. ---
