i was trying to get an si but i got the accord instead. the horsepower difference is only 20 (i4 = 177 si = 197). it depends really. you said you are a college student (i am too), but you have a budget. if you just need a car to get around, get the i4. i floored it once and vtec kicked it and made a lil loud roar that i could hear over my music. the accord handling and braking is excellent and takes only 10 seconds of driving to get used to (for me atleast). but if you got money, go ahead and get the v6 and go kill some mustangs on the highways
