EMMM......Replace the Fit with this?

I am ready to buy my friends Si Sedan if I can sell my Fit for a good price....

Should I?
I've been driving it for the past two weeks already and Fill-up with 94Octane makes me reach deeper into my pockets....:(

I had one and they are great fun. Unfortunately I had to sell mine because my neuropathy in the feet made it so I could not feel the pedals after an hour or so in the seat, like on a long drive or trip. They do have very good seats, egronomics, big trunk and come with a lot of stuff for the money. It is, however, a dual personality car. Below about 4000 it is very docile and once over 4000rpms it hauls the mail. Handling is excellent. Good room in the back seat for passengers as well. The Fit is good for me but I can see a lot to love in an SI sedan.

My friend bought a 08 or 09 WRX and after only 6 weeks a rod or something broke so he had to get swap out for a new Engine.


SI ride is not too bad I like the seats much more than the Fit's.

That is one sweet car and it is definitely in your corner as far as which one you'd like to own. It is a really nice looking ride.

It is a beautiful car but if you are having any doubts I wouldn't do it. If you feel completely comfortable with it then go ahead and buy it.

Just be sure to get a recent build date and there shouldn't be any issues. I plan to trade mine in to get an 09 or maybe 2010 WRX/Wagon by the end of this year. :3
