Civic for First Car

Hey, I'm Noah. I'm 15 years old right now but when I'm 16 I plan on getting a car for around $4000-5000. I am thinking about getting an em1 or em2. What do you guys think? Are there any things I should specifically look for with a Civic? Thanks for your input.

Welcome to the forum Noah.

In your price range you can get a decent 6th or 7th gen civic. Read up on the differences of these generations and see what is important to you. 6th gen has a better suspension and is less "complex". 7th gen has more room and better safety. 7th gen has know head gasket issues but you should be able to find a lower mileage one since they are newer.

Thanks, I like the look of the em2s more (That's 7th gen right?) And they are newer. I think that if I had it for awhile that would be better because they are newer. Thanks for the suggestion. I appreciate it!
