04

Well, if you have the cash to buy new, get an 04. I like the looks too. It's the same car, so if you're looking to save get an 01-03.

LiTtOaZn2nR

Thanks..These advices really help and I think i'm gonna go for 01-03 and use the rest of the money to buy some after-market parts.

04's fronts look too much like a camry to me. 01-03 all the way.

i would have to say 03 civics. i really dont like 04 front headlights.
and 03 gets nice interior as 04., probably better deal than 04 new models.

You answered it yourself,

If you are modifying
01-03

If you are not
04

I wouldnt get an 01. I had an 01 and I sold it because all i had was problems with the car. You want to stay away from first year cars. If you are going to buy an older civic I would either get a 6th gen 1996-2000 or a 2002, 2003 or a new 2004.

nuffsed

go with a 2k3... everything is pretty much the same as the 04 except for the body...

iTrader: (2)

if you want to wait for body parts then get the o4 but if you know you can make an 02 the way you want then get that one, and i would say 02 unless you like the gauges on the 03

Legxcy

I say an 01 - 03. They are going to have a lot more stuff for that Civic, than the new 04. And the headlights are ugly if you ask me...

I would buy the '04 and forget about modding the car. Buy a nicer car with the money you would use to mod an older one.

It's never a good idea to buy an older car because you want to spend the saved money (over buying a newer car) on mods.

Anyhow, get a '02-'03 if you just have to mod the thing. Stay away from the '01s.

I think the 01-02 looks better stock. Go with an 02 since they improved from the previous year. If I could do it all over, I would get a 99-00 civic. Those are the best IMO and actually look like civics. The 04s look like any other regular car out there.

Yeah, if I could do it over, I would have gotten a 6thgen hatch or a teg. But my dad kept pushing me to get the new car and when we went to check it out he was like bam, heres your new car, btw your payments are ....

When I was looking, the cars that were a few years old were only a couple thousand less than the new ones. Parents talked me into the new one. At least you know it's new and won't have problems for a while.

04 looks like a corolla man, get the 03

gearbox

iTrader: (95)

Ha...04 looks like a camry, corolla, civic hybrid, and possibly a combination of a few other cars. If you want a real CIVIC and not just a car that looks like all the rest, go with an older model.

Go with the 04, but thats just my opinion.

white2K2EX

I'd get one of the last 03's. They'll be giving them away soon if they already aren't.

dragoon

iTrader: (2)

Honestly I really like the look of the 04. Time for 03 center console w/ armrest and 04 front end conversion!

6_funk

yeah just like white2k2ex said, go for an 03.
you'll be getting a new car, and you'll save money cuz they're probably getting rid of it to make room for the 04's.
wait until around october, and you should be able to find the right 03 for you, at a really good price.

iTrader: (1)

yah im kinda in the same situation as you, my 2001 got written off so now im wondering whether to get another used car or save up a little for a new 04. I wonder what aftermarket support the 04 will get? since presumably the new generation civics would be coming out next year i guess.

hrmm, when would be a good time to buy 2001-2003 ? didnt they already have they're summer clearout thing.

sCoTtEh

03 mother effer..i'mma sock you in school for even asking..

04's = camery head lights + the rest of a 03 civic

Don't get a new car. Try to find a used one for a good price. Go for a certified Used Honda.

BlackSI

if u like the corolla look and want to be one of the first honda corollas then go for the 2004. if u like the 01-03 look go for that. u'll save money that way cuz they want to get rid of them now more than ever

LiTtOaZn2nR

Thanks for all the replys...So there's a guage difference between the 02 and the 03??

NitehawkVTEC

I know. get like a 01 acura instead of an 04 civic. you could probably get a non type S CL or TL. or you could get a 02 RSX. for probably the same amount of money.

iTrader: (16)

get a 01, cause they are slightly faster than the 02's for soem reason
