Alot of people are sitting waiting to see special editions and Performance versions, We know Scion does RS, we know Subaru is cooking up something and is very tight lip. WE know it's going to be hard as hell to be the first people to get the car, so why struggle and fight over them when you know that one they will be rare on the first year, two if you didn't pre order you might have to pay a much higher premium. Not to mention with all the recalls going on for new cars, it's safe to take precautions.

For my point of view, if you can't afford it then you shouldn't even be thinking about it. If you really want the car and it doesn't really fight with the needs. Trust me you'll be able to afford it one way or another because you just got to have it.

No the note of Honda Don't expect them to come back and fight with RWD, another S maybe but not a RWD RSX. They have much more problems with their own econ box to worry even about the sports department, they've already created enough buzz with the NSX. That will keep them alive for a while, also in Japan articles have came up that they might try to take the version of the American Civic Si make it with abit more Honda dna and fight the 86 with that. Remember, Honda never was famous for it's RWD s2000 during the Coupe Era of the late 80's or the 90's the S came afterwards but what was kicking ass and taking names in that era was their Integra. If they were going to fight back count on another FF.

Nissan will likely watch and we know that VW is going to have a convertible soon. Not to mention Mazda's next plans for the Miata is something even lighter more affordable.

These cars will likely hold value like the S2000 or 350Z for sure, but there isn't anything wrong at all with waiting.
