what's happening for the '05 Civics?

Anybody have any information on what Honda will be changing for the new model year in the fall? I'm currently in a lease that will expire around the time the '05s are out and would like to know if I should hold out for the '05 Civics or just try and get a deal now on an '04.....

Hey DVnAFI,

It says in your profile you got an RS6.

Thats one mean ride, what brings you to a civic forum? I'd be out trying to get a handle on those 450 horses.

Your best bet is to wait, they'll be out in a few months. If you don't like the 05s, you can prolly get a nice deal on a 04 because they'll try to get rid of them.

nothing for 05 will be different. People stop asking that and stop asking if we have heard anything about the next gen. cause we don't know anything about the next generation and the 05 is not the next generation!

You drive a $90,000 car, plus have nice second car, I'd say you're rich. But then I see you're only 20 years old, so I'd say your parents are rich.

At the age of 17, I recieved my first car, a 2001 Acura Integra Type R #45 or 49 I can't remember what number, but, it was yellow. I never drove the thing. I never got the hang of stick shift. After about 3 months, my dad took it in, and I bought a 2002 VW Jetta 1.8T. One day while strolling in the mall, I entered a contest for a 325Ci. Little did I know, 4 months later they were calling me telling me to attend some seminar and pick up the car in San Fransisco. So now, I had two cars, a Jetta and a BMW. The BMW was a pain in the ***. I hated it. Seeing that the Jetta was being to big of a burden in maint(my warranty expired) I went ahead and sold it. I bought a 2002 Civic EX for 6500 from this old lady that lives down the street. it only had 5K miles on it, so I figured why not. Drove my Civic around a lot. I got to see that the poor Sushi was just way to slow. I decided to sell both of them. In total, I recieved 45K for both of them. I went ahead and went to an Audi dealer with mind of buying a TT. Little did I know I would discover the A6 2.7T. Even more, did I know what beauty I was going to find in the showroom. Upon some 30 second calculations in my head, I took the RS6 out of the showroom with only 4 miles on it. With 45K down, I was able to finance 51K for the next 72 months. Driving the Audi for about 3 weeks, spending 350 dollars in gas, a week, as just waaaay to much. I didn't want to lose my Audi. Upon picking up my brother from the Honda dealer(he has a 02 Civic) I saw a 2004 Civic Si with a sticker on the windshield that said "Demo". After walking to it, little did I know I'd find a red tag on it saying, "Managers Special 15,300" HA! I took it on the spot. I knew I wasn't going to find a brand new Si for only 15K. So thats the story on my cars. No I am not rich. I work at a Law Office as a secratary for 2 attorneys and several parallegals. I also work at SFMM as a second job, where I work up to 2 or 3 am sometimes. If I have what I have, its because I work my *** off for it.

thanks for the history lesson...I think.

The yellow Type R was known as the "old man's Integra" because it was wildly unpopular with the generation it was intended for.

Not an Audi fan what so ever but whatever turns your crank I guess.

The price for speed and luxo will sometimes kill ya! Hopefully working 2 jobs wont do the same..... must be nice to have so many cars to drive. Sounds like you have done and experienced a lot of things in your life at an early age. good for you! = )
