I'm having a blast with my Civic Si (no, I don't have stickers all over it, coffee can exhaust or bling bling rims). 160 hp, 2780 lbs, 30+ mpg, hatchback storage for that engine case, etc. It's a hoot to drive and is the most fun to drive car I've ever had other than my 911's. It does everything right for what it is.
I picked up a new left over '03 10 months ago for $15,800...
