WTH... Why is EV making so much sense in this thread....
Anyways, happy that your happy with your car, but seriously your arguments for buying it are way off.
Reliability? Not proven yet, and dodge doesnt have the best track record...
Financial? I agree the Mustang would have been worse, but if you were serious about saving money, you would have bought something a little more base model.
Options? What options are you talking about? You can get everything better in the aftermarket. Wheels, tires, radio, speakers, nav, bluetooth... Apart from little gadgets which are pretty much useless, most cars have'em.
Someone said the Civic Si. I have one, has proven reliability, similiar performance, and holds good resale should you ever need to sell it. The Si has just about every option you need, and more for the same price.
Anyways, you made your choice, you're happy, but you dont need to try and justify it. Especially when you're not making sense.
For those suggesting the FR-S, well he said he wanted space, and seems to have wanted 4 doors. Also adding a Turbo would push him to around 38k, since the FRS alone would come to around 30k. And i dont know where you buy your turbo kits, but anything quality, would push you around 5k minimum. Not to mention the tuning afterwards, and even that is limited at the moment, as the ECU is still being worked on for tuning. Its new, so your limited in programming for now.

The Civic Si has even more power and more torque than the dart. I see no better option than a 4 doors Si (power, fun, PROVEN reliability, look, fun, power, 4 doors more whores) for the exact same price
And I bet gas cunsumption will be cheaper on the Civic even if eveybody ITT tells me 'oh noez the 1.4 was designed for fuel economy' which is clearly not the case

Actually the Dart makes 14 more torques than the Civic, but has 40 less HP. The Dart also has MUCH better fuel efficiency the the Civic (Dart = 27/39mpg city/hwy and the Civic = 22/31mpg city/hwy)Both have 4-doors...so not really an advantage over the other for either of them. And in the end, the Civic is more expensive (car cost). If we factor in the OP's age, the Civic will also cost more on insurance, and will attract cops and tickets more as well.
They each have points above the other, and for that reason, I place them pretty much in the same place. Yes, the Civic has proven reliability, but we don't have proof that this car is NOT reliable yet. Can't make assumptions.

You'd be surprised what depreciation does to a car's value.

et
faut tu passes l'inspection obligatoire c'est un char de l'ontario
faut tu trouves une assurance quebecoise qui va vouloir de toi dans ce char la
faut que tu vives sans la garantie a cause que le turbo l'a fait lever dans les airs
faut que tu trouves un financement sur un char usages qui meme si c'est quasiment neuf c'est pas un char neuf aux yeux de la banque tu te retrouves avec un terme moin long et donc un paiement beaucoup plus eleve
faut que tu esperes que le moteur te chiera pas dans la face a cause du turbo avant que tu as fini de payer le char

I was just replying to jeeps005 question lol, not really pertaining to the thread.
To OP's credit, the Dart actually is overall nicer than the SI, albeit significantly slower.
