Would you change your 03 for an 04?
I guess this question is primarily targetted at 03 owners, but I expect it also applies to 02, and anyone else who cares to reply.
All this talk of 04s is beginning to turn me on!
The obvious advantages are the new colours, the front shock/strut tower brace thingy that Brian mentioned on the other thread (which I'm hoping adds something
), the option for headrest speakers, the colour headlamp washers, and yes.......I'm afraid I do quite like the chrome stereo door (well.....whaddya expect when I've got those headrests! 
).
The disadvantages are the financial loss at this stage, the fact that I thought I might keep my S forever (
), and that to get the front lip I would have to buy that 'orrible spoiler.
So....should I swap now?; if not....how long to wait to make this reasonably economical (considering depreciation, etc) ?
How many of you are thinking of swapping for an 04, and how many of you actually have decided to do it?
(Hey....d'ya reckon if there's enough of us we could get a discount on a GB?
)
Thoughts please ladies and gents............................

I was phoned the other day by a midlands honda dealer and asked if I was interested in trading up to a silverstone 03 ex-demonstrator. Only something like 230 miles. Trouble is that they were asked around
