Black 04 owner.

Just got it about a month ago.

No mods yet.
Going to get the bigger spoiler with the brakelight in it.
possible AEM intake

anyone know if there are rainguards for the windows available?
It is the only thing that I dislike about my car. The rain rolls right
off the roof and into my car!

I'm curious about something. Those of us who bought the '02 and '03 EP3 were able to get extraordinary deals on the cars.

Would you mind too awfully if we asked what kind of deal you got on the '04?

I'm wondering if they cut back production for the USDM because they had to cut so many deals on the earlier cars. I think the '04 might end up being a rare car compared to the earlier years.

And on top of that, I'm hearing that the '04 might be the last year for the EP3 Si, which would make it a very unusual marketing ploy on Honda's part.

I got a pretty good deal on my car, I traded in my old one as part of the deal, but I didn't get that much for it because carfax found that it had been taken off the warranty due to a major accident.

Which I never knew about, how nice.

I got mine for 18,000.
Coulda done better if my car wasn't scrapped and rebuilt.
(stupid private owners)

The Wall Street Journal actually has an article out today
dissing the Si.
And they are discontinuing the line after this years '04.
I didn't care, I love my Si... It is a great little car.

Whoa.

Instant collector's item!

It seems to me that the '92-'95 hatches didn't realise their potential until after they were gone.

Perhaps it'll be the same w/the '02-'04 hatches.

The 92 - 95 hatchs are classics and they look good..

The 02-04 hatchs will never be a collectors Item... there just 2 damn ugly! h:

This from the guy w/the red del Sol.

I remember when people in the USA first laid eyes on the British-designed '92 hatch. At the time, they thought that it was ugly. :P

Yup.

That colour was a throwback to the safety colours of the late sixties and early seventies.

You're probably not old enough to remember when about 25% of all Porsches sold in North America were Signal Orange.

And even I owned Porsches that were Zambezi Green.
