I finally found an R, but still not 100% on it
G'day guys, I just thought I'd pick all your brains after reading several posts. I'll try not to ask questions you think you already answered though.
I've been looking to get a Ford Focus XR5 and I am about to negotiate a price for one after Christmas. However, when Honda told me a few weeks ago that there were no more 2009 Civic Type R's in Australia anymore, I jsut let it go as a descision.
Now, jsut yesterday I got a call from a local Honda dealership that they have a Black Civic for me, ready to go for me.
Now, I can get a Honda with Mats, illuminated skuff plates, and chrome fuel lid for about $44,000. But the XR5 I got quoted was $43,000 for a car that has a turbo, much more torque, leather recaro's, mats, pearl paint, bluetooth, and voice control (plus other toys that come standard that are aditional for the Type R.)
Now my easy choice (because there are no Civics being sold anymore) has jsut gotten harder. What do you Honda enthusists think of my options? To be honest, I really dont want to spend more than 42 grand, but I have already gone over my budget on both cars.
