Probably a used 2000 Cadillac Catera or 1998 Lincoln Mark VIII. You could get DOT approved legal HID in those cars for about $8000 today. For a few grand more, you could get a 2000 Audi A4 which had xenons as an option.

Unfortunately, Civics today don't yet come with HID, and plug-and-play HID kits tend to be shoddy in build quality. It's often a case of getting what you pay for.

As an alternative, you may wish to consider saving up for a projector retrofit.
