So, based on the looks and the low stance what competes with it? Used MX5? I don't like the looks. Used German/japanese roadster, expect huge repair bills.

It's worth the money if the form factor of the package and new are important to you. Does that answer your question?
Also dont forget the Blue Tooth capabilities which were a very nice luxury I did not have in my 2009 Civic Si which came with all the bells and whistles. As far as stock value goes... I got everything I wanted in this car except for winter tires.
