Holy crap...74? Serious? I have to say that it's cool to have older owners. Usually you just see a bunch of 28 something kids (like myself, LMAO)

Well...regardless of age, nationality, and religious beliefs. I think we all agree that cars brings people together.

Welcome! Looks really sharp. Post more pics and let us know first impressions. Oh...and is it rude to ask what kind of deal you got?

I don't think so. I'm getting it for 50 plus whatever taxes end up being. It's not a super steal, but it's under bluebook and the cheapest one around with similar miles. I'd be interested to know what you all paid...

So after moving money from one bank to another I'm told I have to wait for the money to clear before they can get me a certified check. Awesome! Looks like it's gonna be another week.

^^^ I hate that waiting period too! It is worth it though.

I got my '09 for 46k when it had 36k miles.

Congrats and welcome, although it does suck having to wait another week..... The ISF is such a great all around car, you'll be very happy with it. It does everything I want from a car at the moment, and I can't really come up with a car I'd be happier owning for daily driving duties.

Well it is 10 days after my initial post and it is FINALLY sitting in my driveway. I almost put it off for one more day bc of the weather (VA has some serious storms coming through tonight) but I was tired of waiting. Wife took me down and the rest is history. I love it. It's amazing to drive and the features are amazing compared to the Civic I came from.

I took everything out of the glovebox and found the original sticker, which I always like to have, and also the original FL registration.

According to Carfax I'm the second owner. It was initially titled as a "COMMERCIAL" vehicle. I was a little confused as what this meant, but when I looked up the company on the FL registration I found out it was a small payment management company. Either way I consider myself the first real owner, since I assume everyone at the company was allowed to drive it. 2011 with 9200 on the dash tells me that I'm the winner haha.

11K off MSRP for a brand new 2012 are everywhere now. Think about this.
