Default Need some Opinions Accord V6 vs. Civic Si

I fell in love with a black Honda civic Si today. It's $19,000 I know I can talk them down to 18,000, plus my car as a down payment which would be about $5000-$4000 here as then it would be like 14-15k. And I MAY be working there so cut alot more off(about a thousand) and it ends up being about 11-14k that I would pay which is about $220 a month for a payment.
Now it gets about 10 more MPG's then my accord does 31mpg vs. 20mpg hwy, but it has cloth seats, no automatic climate control, small things like that that the accord does have and civic doesn't

But IDK what to do

Oh yeah its an 08' with 42k miles, black, tinted windows, yokohama tires, red interior displays
I have a 99 accord v6 leather fully loaded, Si seemed slightly faster

I think the avg auction price for that year model is down around $12,000; and avg miles were around 35k.
Just happened I looked up an 08 LX 4 door for a lady today.
You can always check out edmunds . com and look for the "TMV" True Market Value.
Just remember that KELLY BLUE BOOK prices reflect Dealer 'asking' prices and not the actual sale prices !!

Our 2007 Civics aren't Si, but I really like the car. Anemic engine, but I expect the K-series you get in the Si would fix that.

The oil filter was kinda tough to reach in my 2003 Accord. I expect it'll be nearly impossible with the windshield cowling hanging over like it does in the Civic.

Trade that Accord in for ANYTHING before the tranny goes boom.
