Was just time for something new. The 08 had 80,000 miles, hard miles lol and while nothing was wrong with the car at the time im sure something would have went wrong sooner than later. It needed new tires, would have needed new rear brakes/rotors in a few months, had some paint chips... it was showing its age so rather than keep putting money in a 5 year old car i figured id get a new one.
In early December a friend asked me to go to the Honda dealership one Sunday and i wasnt even really looking but saw the red Si when i was there and decided to keep an eye on it. I saw another dealership offering them for $19,800 so i emailed the dealership i was at to see if they would match the price and they did then ended up paying off my 08 +$200 so i really couldnt pass it up.
