I'm not Ralper but let me one of the first to congratulate you on your excellent choice. I love that dashboard with its two levels. Can't wait to see pictures. Hurry back!

I love the new Si as well. If it were AWD I might be tempted.

Congratulations! I can't wait to see your pictures.

I love mine. I sometimes have a hard time deciding between the S and the Si. Both are a lot of fun to drive.

You're going to love the Navi/audio system, the gearbox and the overall feel of the car.

Good luck. Post when you get home.

I like the new Civics, and of course, the Si in particular. I hope you enjoy the hell out of it. Congratulations!!

Woo Hoo - I couldn't help thinking back on the drive home to those mid 70's Civics and Accords and realizing just how far Honda has come.

It's a whole lot of things the S is - and a whole lot of things it is not. It's amazingly quiet - when you close the door it has that "thunk" sound like a Mercedes. It's really tight.

It's also really sneaky fast. You don't feel the speed like you do in an S - maybe because you're sitting a little higher off the ground?

Anyway, I'm tired from signing all the autographs I had to sign just to bring it home. Should have had Pete Rose sign for me - probably could have paid it off on the spot.

I'll post pictures of the fleet tomorrow - after I read the manual on the Navi.
