You're right of course. I've lost countless dollars already. I'm not rich, but I see money as a means of making it through the day making sure I end the day content.

I did have fun with all my cars, especailly the Si's. But i'm over sixty and this car is really for the younger folks. Doing some research, I should see close to the same mpg w/ the V6 coupe, at the price of a regular versus premium. After test driving both V6 sedan and coupe w/AT, it is like night and day compared to the Si. The coupe reminds me of the fastbacks of the sixties, with the sporty but luxurious feel of the modern high end cars. The coupe is about 500 lbs heavier than the Si. But even with the 78 hp advantage of the coupe, the Si has about 15 hp per pound to the accord 13 hp/lbs. and the Si has about 20 lbs torgue versus 14 lbs of the V6. The smoothness of the accord coupe V6 trumps everything. I will miss the Si...
