Really Stupid Question.

Instead of me going through pages and pages of date trying to compare the specs on the two cars, can you all tell me just what the difference is between the:
3.0i and 3.0si models?

There seems to be a 10K price difference. Even used ones.
 
I just specked out my car in a 3.0i vs 3.0si. The 3.0i with same exact spec as my 3.0si is MSRP $46,935, where as my 3.0si is MSRP $50,110.

50,110-46,935 = $3,175. Not as much as you thought...
 
When I ordered my 06 si I did the same thing flyboyaj did and as I recall the difference at that time was also right at $3,000. However, the dealer was willing to sell me the si for only a $2,000 difference and at that point for me it was an easy decision... :driving:
 
I had a very similar experience. I think that WLH and I bought around the same time and there was a factory incentive. If I recall correctly, there was more money back on the si than the i, so it made the decision real easy. The si has some creature comforts standard that are optional on the i. Also, a big factor for me was that the sport package on the si came with the 18" 108 wheels vs 17" wheels on the i.
 
The 3.0i Sport Package now comes with 18" 241 wheels. The si Sport Package still comes with the 18" 108 wheels.

Non-sport package for both come standard with 17" wheels. 200 style for the i and 201 style for the si.
 
yep thats about it
