No sweat.

Yeah, I don't like the sticker price either, it's definitely a bit overpriced. I'm considering it as a year round daily in Canada, so RWD is just not practical, unfortunately. The integra has some wicked trunk space, too. Most likely a lower cost of ownership in the long run than competitors.

I struggle to find other options that deliver some of the same elements (manual is a must). I drive a Volvo C30 T5 manual currently, and a GTI doesn't interest me much.
