So if I were of a mind to plunk down a few hundred large for a new
piston single, I might have trouble choosing between these two very nice
rides. The SR-22 is more airplane, but it's a lot more money, too.
Cessna has done a fine job modernizing the 182, IMO, and I'd be very
happy to own one.

Interesting comparison, but the two aircraft being compared just
"happend to be" being compared with each other. Were I to be making a
choice of aircraft, I might pick a number (say, the price of the Cirrus)
and see how much airplane that would buy me from other companies. What
does Cessna offer for $100K more than the 182 pictured? (A citation?
