Well if they never made the Civic altogether I don't think we would be able to answer that question because the Civic has brought around many new classes of cars and standards to live up too.

if the civic wasnt created, i would've been driving a 2003 toyota corolla-s. why? because my dad loves toyota and he chooses the cars in this family. its not my money so i cant argue against him.

i was about to get an base rsx automatic which could've gone to my older bro for a year, then me. i would've tooken an base rsx over my civic anyday

At the time, I test drove 4 other vehicles before I settled on my Civic...

Hyundai Tiburon
Mazda Protege 5
Toyotal Corolla-S
Volkswagen Jetta
Volkswagen Golf

I would probably have been driving one of those...

A Lancer OZ Rally. Maybe a GTI 1.8t but that would have been pushing my budget at the time i bought my car. I was saving up for a RSX-S, but my old car died.

I didn't want to be so insulting, I was commenting very light heartedly. I would like to apologize if I ofended you. I figured you only went to one person and bought a car. You probrably got a good deal. I went to 4 dealerships called 8 of them, call me cheap I guess(I had a hard time getting my hands on an EX coupe)

I purchased the my 2003 EX coupe Civic new for 17,458.26 tax in (I converted it from 22,900 canadian) Taxes in Canada are very high. Its a 2003 Civic fully loaded, manual transmission, spoiler and audible alarm. It might not of got the best deal, but hey I was getting tired looking for a car. I put as much effort as I could. I'm guessing its way more competitive in the states since they probably have more dealerships and sell more cars than here in Canada.

I won't bet you 100 US dollars cause its too rich for my blood thats like $131 CAD dollars.

Hey dudes and dudettes, this is off topic but do you feel your car preforms differently on different days. What I mean to say it has its good days or bad days. Or am I just going crazy?
