Traded in my SI
 
I traded in my 2012 Civic SI yesterday for a new family/baby car. Picked up this 2013 Subaru WRX Limited. It was a certified used and only had 4,000 miles on it. I'm enjoying it a lot so far and have some small plans for it.

Very clean and good in Blue. Is that a Hatch ?

I am interested to knowing the reason why you traded your SI. My friend is using his SI as a family car and doesnt have any issues with it.

Could of been a coupe.

WRX's have more leg room, is a hatch and has AWD. And more POOOOOWEEEERRRR.

Oh. Well then I guess it'd be the same issue as the twins then. It's just far more convenient with a 4 door hatchback than with a 2 door coupe.
I'm sure the SI would work just fine, but it's not as "easy" to make it work.

I didn't have any issues with the SI and it was a good family car. I guess I just wanted some more power. I also like to go skiing sometimes and this will be a lot better in the snow and ice for when I do go.

It was the 4 door SI. I loved the Civic but I sure am loving this WRX! =)
And the WRX is actually the sedan but it still does have more room than the Civic did.
