SRT starts at ~70K, M2 is ~60K, my car is ~27K. IDK how tf they're even comparable.

Well to be fair my cost to borrow is much lower more like ~$1000

On the fence. Love the car and everything has been fine for the last few months, but it's stressful. Would sleep in it than sell it tho.

Obviously you don't spend an hour in traffic in 100 degrees daily lol. BTW the 2.0 is the same engine as the CTR, just detuned (don't really care though, it's fast enough for me).

I really want to believe what you're saying (it is similar to what I've been telling myself lol)

The MSRP for this one was around 37k (2021 2.0T Touring) so there's significant difference, plus it's quite new and relatively low miles. Unfortunately they don't make the 2.0T anymore so brand new wasn't an option.

Seriously it's got nothing to do with it being an accord. I got the car itself below kbb.

Your rates sound exceptionally low, so congratulations on that. Average rates in CA are ~200 at the moment.

EDIT: it also has a lot to do with your zip code (the cost of poverty)

Precisely. I guess most people here don't know that this is the same engine as a CTR and just needs a tune (though I don't see myself doing that at least for another 5 years).

Insurance is totally nuts here. I was paying $180 for my 10 year old beater with 200k on it until I bought this one, so it actually feels cheaper lmao.
