How many miles are on the SI? That's the coolest SI year the USA ever got (in my opinion.)

There's nothing wrong with being frugal and practical.

I would not call a car that gets 30+mpg impractical. I'm sure your insurance might be a bit higher depending on where you are because a lot of people rice them out and race/wreck them. I don't really think honda has sold an impractical car in the USA since the s2000.
