"Sup

txbkr · 01-03-2008, 08:27 PM

"Sup fellas. New to the forum. I'm normally a 'stang driver but I want an "SI" after having driven one on a windy road. Please, don't hate.

I'm lucky in that I can get the civic at a discounted rate; close to wholesale. So, here is where a "new" civic driver needs help. From 2000 - 2006, with $11k in my pocket, which one is the best deal for the money. Please take into consideration, looks, interior, drivetrain, suspension, comfort, etc.

Again, glad to be part of the forum and thanks for the help in advance.

welcome, with 11k it'll be pretty tough to get an 8th gen SI.

welcome....

Id think an lx coupe would be good, put down the 11k, get some good payments. are you looking to buy a car at 11k straight out?

if u still got the stang, trade it in or sell it. depending on wat year it is u might be able to get urself into an previous generation si or even an 8th.

can't go wrong with a 99-00 si with the b16, or if you can spring for it, i'm sure the 8th gen would make you happy as well.

welcome btw. good luck on your decision feel free to ask questions.

or you can get an ep3 which which is the generation si before this. You can also look into rsx-s and integra gsr. If you have the need for speed you can get an older civic hatch like a 1994 and swap it. Its all up to you man good luck!
