  1. It was fun while it lasted...

    Haven't replaced it, but with my wife working from home, I'm driving her CR-V a lot more. My primary DD is back to being my s2k though.
  2. It was fun while it lasted...

    No problem. I didn't have to payoff the lease as AutoNation contacted Honda Financial and paid the lease payoff directly. Yet another reason I avoided the online only places like Carvana and Vroom.
  3. It was fun while it lasted...

    I leased my 17 Si Coupe the weekend after Thanksgiving 2017 and immediately felt like it was a nearly perfect car to take daily driving duties from my s2k. This car was just so easy to drive and had enough pep to make the mundane daily grind that much more pleasurable. The car is not without...
  4. Any reason to upgrade to 2020 SI

    no real reason to upgrade. however, for those of us who leased a '17, it's probably cheaper to lease the new '20 Si than it is to purchase the leased '17, especially if it's not your only car. also, all the sensing stuff can be turned off. i've come to love it on my wife's '17 CR-V Touring. it...
  5. Gearing Shifting Newbie

    honestly, no clue what the RPMs are when i shift. i've been driving manual cars so long that i can tell based on the sound of the engine when to shift up or down. the only time i even look at my gauge cluster is to check my MPG (which reminds me to slow the f- down sometimes)
  6. After 10 months of planning, saving and waiting my new daily is home.

    congrats. welcome to the Si/S2k family :p (not pictured is the wife's CR-V)
  7. What's everyone's miles looking like?

    ~11k on my '17 (leased end of Nov, '17)
  8. anyone change oem battery with optima?

    I won't ever use Optima again. They made a great name for themselves in the early 00's, but have not really made a quality product since '12. I went through 4 of them in my S2k before going back to Honda's OEM battery. Certainly was not worth spending ~$175 for the Optima name when it leaves you...
  9. Compartment Liners

    i got mine a little over a year ago and they were nice for a while, until they started warping. the smaller pieces for the door handles and below the console never did fit right (the door handle liners were too small and the side console liners on both sides of the center console were way too...
  10. Low MPG

    in socal here as well and my daily commute to work is ~30 miles round trip. i drive pretty aggressively at times, but also very relaxed at other times. since socal traffic sucks pretty much all the time, i've been averaging just a little over 28 mpg.
  11. How many do NOT mod their Si what-so-ever???

    i haven't modded mine at all since it's a lease and i don't know what i'm going to do with it when my lease is up. at least i have ~20 months left to figure it out.
  12. Muffler delete dB level test

    i'm sorry, but this is completely wrong. https://jalopnik.com/why-people-are-suddenly-freaking-out-over-californias-e-1831620651 basically, if it hurts your ears inside the car, it's probably way too loud, but cops can (and will) pull over anyone doing stupid crap with anything that looks like...
  13. Averaging 24.7 mpg.....

    i'm getting about 28.3 mpg with about 80% city driving. that also means that i tend to really let her rip when i do get some open space getting onto the freeways :p usually, when i set the cruise at 80-85mph on the freeway, i see my mpg's hover around the 40 mark. doesn't much matter when the...
  14. Returning leased Si with non-OEM tires?

    it won't matter at all unless you return the car with tread well below the wear indicator, and even then, it might be a long shot since they will change the tires before they can sell it anyways.
  15. Civic Si Rear Window Tint

    a little late, but here's the pics.
  16. Civic Si Rear Window Tint

    sure, i'll grab a picture tomorrow when the sun comes back out.
  17. Civic Si Rear Window Tint

    the place i got my windows tinted did a solid black vinyl over the bumps since that turns out better, and you can't see it unless you're in the back seat anyways.
  18. Cup Holder upgrade for 2019 - Does this include the entire console?

    I just purchased my cup holder "upgrade" yesterday. I should be receiving it by the end of next week. I'm just really shocked that Honda screwed up so badly with the original cup holders.
  19. What is your Lease Payment?

    $214/mo (after taxes), 36 months, 12k/year and $2500 down... basically, the exact deal that was on Honda's site for the special
