Possible Deal on New 2.0T Sport

A local dealer has quoted me a new 2.0T Sport essentially at MSRP ($35,150) and offered $11,200 on trade for my 2017 EX-L V6 with 175,000 miles. Out the door is right at $25,700. Thoughts? I'm losing a few features from the EX-L (leather, auto dimming mirror, Homelink, memory seats) but gaining a lot of modern tech with the 2.0T Sport. I'm on the fence because while my car has been a great car, I know I'm in for quite a few repairs in the near future with another timing belt change, water pump, tires, etc. My other option is to wait for the 2023 and jump on the hybrid bandwagon, giving up a great deal of power.

If you're happy with the trade in (I don't know if its good or not) then go for it. 2.0 is a great car and the 2022 will be the last year of production.

So, I'm curious what you all think I should do to my new ride, which I have christened, "White Lightning?" I am getting splash guards installed by the dealer. I had thought about the moonroof wind deflector/visor, but I think I have changed my mind on that. It makes the car look 'frumpy' in my opinion. I'm also considering the auto dimming rearview mirror with HomeLink. I have the Honda all-weather floor mats ordered. I'm considering XPEL PPF for the front, hood, and fenders. I might even consider window tint. I'm not going to do anything mechanical, tuning, etc. It's plenty fast for me.
Change out all the speakers and add a subwoofer of some sort. Speakers at the very least. Your ears will thank you.
