I would be really happy with either a a WRX or STI, IS300 or a TSX but i'm leaning towards the sti or wrx cuz of awd and I sorta want that for these canadian winters. But I wouldn't turn down a s2000 .

Fantasy/slim chance: BMW M30 or36 M3 or Porsche 914 w/lightyears of miles, would be fun to restore and build a mean street sleeper. Slightly more realistic: Heir to the future RX-8 w/6spd, we like to pass along cars so when he gets tired of shifting (thorasic outlet probelm in his right arm) I'll be kind enough to relieve him of it!! I can only hope...

I plan to sell my Civic after I graduate University, which is next year.

I've always wanted an RSX Type-S, but the BMW 3-series or M3 is nice too.

Thank you so much, we REALLY love the car already . The fit and finish is definetely not Honda but this car is essentially a motor with seats attached The handling is actually surprisingly nimble because the car is *slightly* lowered stock and already has full length subframe connectors.

It was sad to say bye to the vic though...she had tons of personality for having only 127 hp


Phatty: those new Scions actually look really nice! The tails are a cross between a tiburon/04 Civic, and the rest of the lines are pure G35. Not bad for such a cheap car I'm sorry to hear that you had issues with your Honda, that is pretty rare.

The 2004...I am too attached to my hatchy!!! Plus I am still in college and have a NON paying internship so no new car for me yet! I'd probably keep my little Honda anyways...sometimes a car is just worth more to YOU than the used car manager, ya know? With no power accessories and 124K miles, it's most likely a $2000 trade in TOPS.

We did just get it, it was total impulse buy

I didn't get nearly as much as I wanted for the damn aero kit but it's a FORD dealership so what can you expect? But we already put 11,000 miles on it since late October, so if we wanted to get something else it had to be NOW before the miles got even higher (hubby has a looong commute to work).

Thanks for reminding me about parts though, I have to put up the MOMO shift **** for sale thanks again for the kind words about the new ride, she is FAST but still Honda rules for quality and reliability! But we aren't always that responsible
