I'm digging the rallye red. I'm just waiting anxiously for word on the SI. Was about to pounce on new WRX but the insurance company killed that dream quick. I'm hoping the new tech and turbo VTEC engines don't do the same for the new SI.
I think it would be a mistake on Hondas part to use the 1.5L turbo in the SI when you compare it to the competition. That would be a deal breaker for me. If it comes with a toned down type r power plant I will be at the dealership saying shut up and take my money.
Should be ok. Though having said that weather in the Carolina's will have you wearing flip flops one day and a winter coat the next. The first or 2nd week in April should be your best bet for warm but not blazing weather.
