You're on a 7th gen site, think about it.........

There aren't many problems with our 01's. i've had no trouble out of mine. i hate to say it but 6th gen's are getting old (the 96's) and you will probably have more problems out of one of those.

7thgen's look so much better, plus lower mileage of course.

if you want 6thgen.. try to find 99-00 si's , or just buy 7thgen. sf turbo is very intersting.

Depends, what do you want to do? For just driving around the 01+ is fine, looks a lot better too. 6th gens have double wishbone suspension all around and you can easily just swap in a b-series motor for extra power.
