Keep in mind also that the value of SE's will drop slightly when the SER comes out. Also, if what I have heard is true, the Altima comes out pretty soon, and having two cars with the same motor helps to get those aftermarket parts fast. Anybody know if the SER is in Japan yet? I know with the WRX the aftermarket parts have come out almost instantanously because the REX has been out all over the world for a year.
IMHO, for all you get with the SER (6 speed, FAT tires, 180 horsepower, cool stereo), it is a much better deal to just buy the SER then to mod a SE (no offense to current SE owners, just stating the facts).
