Should I get a Civic LX? Coupe

blueoakleyz · 03-28-2006, 05:14 PM

Would this be a good new car for someone who is 23 and in college..
looking to travel and take road trips, as well as just city driving
I currently have an 83 camaro, the best thing I'm looking forward to is cup holders!

Does anyone have pics of either blue colors for the LX coupe?

Is the Fiji blue at ALL available for the LX?

It's still a civic...

My school has a gentle incline leading up the highway, I need about 3-3.5k rpm to go about 40-45 to keep up with the flow of traffic

Then agan, I don't know what your definition of "not slow" is.

The reg. civics are slow dude, but for the mileage and stuff they are great. They will get you around town and around the freeway. If your old 83 camaro was one w/ a v6 or a 305, you might be surprised w/ the civic. Those old camaro's w/ stock motors are pretty dang slow. Overall, it sounds like a great fit for you. Go drive one damnit.

i love my lx it gets good milelage for city driving my first tank of gas got me an average of 25mpg which is a huge step up from my moms mdx that only gets an ave of 15mpg and it only cost me $27 to fill it up which is a good thing since im only 17 and cant afford $40 a week to fill up a car like my moms lol and those cup holders in are great and i love the sliding cover when the cupholders are dirty
