^ Keep in mind my Civic is an SI, so it's a little more costly than a base (not much, probably). It's also turbo'd, so my gas mileage is a solid ~6 mpg less than it was stock, I change the oil every 3k miles, tranny fluid every 10k, etc, so my maintenance is higher. I realize the Z will still be more, though.

And yeah, if I go this route, definitely used. I got my SI new, my civic before that new.. it's not worth it imo. My SI smelled new for like 2 days and then it was like any used car. Of course, it's all dependent on what kind of deal I can swing on a used one. This damn car doesn't seem to depreciate much!
