The blue '07 Si coupe was kinda a lemon (this is why I traded it).While the '09 Si sedan had a couple more gadgets and the interior was a bit more happening than that of my 1SS/RS (cloth but no usb, no moon roof, no steering wheel radio controls), The power is insane compare to that of the "can't move until 5k RPM" 2.0 i-vec. If you get a 2SS or 2SS/RS (fully loaded w/ leather), you won't even remember your Si. If you get a 1SS or 1SS/RS, you will still get the power punch with a plain, base line interior. I would recommend the 6 speed manual over the auto if you liked shifting in the Si.

Yes want to get a 6 speed. "can't move until 5k rpm" this is so true. I was looking at a camaro 2SS/RS at a dealership today, i think i fell in love with the orange one You can get some really good deals now on a 2010 2ss/rs. so much cheaper than new. I've seen dealers asking $29,999 for a 2ss/rs 2010 with 19k miles. and they sell for $38k new

I'm def going for one to these next summer. thanks for all the feed back everyone!
