| There's nothing you can do now about your purchase, it's like buying a plane ticket to Hawaii for $1,400 thinking you got a great deal to only find out the guy sitting next to you got his for $800. Take care of the car and it will treat you well, don't worry how much the plane ticket costs now, just enjoy your trip. | |

if price is important consider buying a left over 2003 Civic. Your choice of color and side airbags may be limited, but you may be able to get it for $13-$14K. Some dealers may still have 2002 Si's in the back of their lots. |

| how did you get leather seats on your civic? I didn't know that was an option... | |
|
ish2l, you're correct that leather seats are not an option from the factory, but there are "after-market" places that will put leather in just about any vehicle that didn't come from the factory with leather (it's done all the time from what i understand). at my request, the dealership had the after-market place here in town put the leather in for me. i negotiated it into my deal so i wouldn't have to come out of pocket to pay for the leather. if you own a civic, you should consider getting it done 'cause it looks awesome! it totally changes the appearance of the vehicle. |
|
| Well that makes sense...i didn't think aftermarket since you were talking about a brand new car from the dealer, but yeh, I do agree that leather can change the appearance of that car! | |

I, personally, don't like the feel of leather. Besides, most places install leather faced seats, which means that leather is only on seating surfaces, and sometimes only the front seats have "leather seating surface" while the rear seats and the backs and sides are "pleather." Leather requires care, you have to moisturize it on at least by weekly basis or it will crack and break. Leather seats are often slippery because of the moisturizers. But, to each is his/her own. Why would you need leather in a $15K vehicle is beside me, though. My dealer has one on the lot, it has been there since beginning of last year. People who shop civic usually don't care for perceived luxury such as leather seats. But if you like them, more power to you. |
