Unhappy Regret?

hello fellow civic owners, well have you guys had a second doubt on having a civic? i have a 2007 GG civic si, and i just bought a H.I.D light from my friend, haven't touch any mechanical as for now but when i try to install my light ohh crap .for me to get in to the light i have to take out the rims and panel. I mean i love my civic si but i just hope honda dont make it so danm hard to put the light on. Well just want to share my thought.

Yeah, I've had regrets (still do), but they weren't related to changing the lights.

Mine were more related to quality concerns.

I regret buying my car all the time, especially after my dyno run and after realizing i could've gotten a new WRX (well 2006 model) instead.

I regret buying mine, good thing I only lost 2,500 getting rid of it after putting 15k miles on it.

Thought buying a Honda meant I'd have it for a while, but not after seeing how quickly it started heading downhill.

Awesome car, just didn't want to see for myself what kind of shape it'd be in 3 years from now or how much money I'd have to dump into the thing once warranty ran out. If the trans had been out 2x in 15k miles, how the f*ck am I going to trust it at 36k miles and beyond? I didn't beat on it either.

I regretted my civic from day one. And once I saw the poor quality especially when the r18 motors started to crack... I was out of that thing as fast as I could. Not to mention all the squeaks and creeks over EVER bump. Hell the sunroof would crack when I shifted from 1st to 2nd!!!!

what do you mean by the r18 motor crack. i regret mine cuz all the interior quality issue. and the car lurches when i come to a stop but then accelerate between 5 to 15 mph. it just sucks
