I'm 100% sure he wont trade it in. Will probably drive it till the next car, then hopefully I'll get it!

Dad's car?
Yes, exactly! That's why I'm not sure if I'm allowed behind the wheel, lol!
He's giving his 2007 Civic Si to my little sister.
The s2000 was my mom's car, and she gave it to me when she got the Z3 3.0

EDIT: I think it's the limited due to the leather interior.

And straight from the ultimate test track of the Santa Cruz mountains my dad described his first drive impressions:
Car drives flat thru turns like yours.Not as much power of course.Pretty quiet inside. Very good sound system.Complicated electronics to set up and use


I love my pops!

The cars in la honda are nevvvvver clean. I'll bet we get an award for the dirtiest BRZ ever by the end of this week!

He also has a 1972 classic mini cooper, and a fully restored 1937 Chevy coupe! Just waitin for the day to throw a vtec engine in that mini and a hot rod engine in the classic Chevy.

AHHHHHHYEAAAAAAH!

Yeah that is the Limited model with engine start and auto climate control, and sweet keyless (key in pocket, touch the handle to unlock the door) entry. Hope he gets it broken in before I come back to the bay area
