wished he'd bought a ss or ss/sc

With all my friends having mazda 3's and si's do you think I could convince a few recently to buy a 2.4 or the ss/sc version noooo,so after walking there mazda 3's and one si another friend goes and pays 30thousand for an Si and then I take him yesterday at work, so he takes my car out for a spin and he comes back saying he wished he would have taken my advice and test drove either the ss or the ss/sc but when peaple have their hearts set on a certain vehicle it is hard to convince them otherwise, I did the same thing when I bought my Vibe.

^^ Agreed.

Ever consider using your Vibe as a trade-in and getting an SS/SC?

I think he was saying is that a friend who bought an SI, wished he would have bought one after he test drove his g5.

That same thing happened to me over the summer. My buddy wanted an SRT-4, so he bought one. then one night he wanted a ride from me. So I gave him one, after that he said he wish he bought an SS/SC.
