Just bought an '04
Hey guys well... I'm having second thoughts about the car after owning a '04 Black 5 speed EX. It's completely stock. I was initially looking for something non sporty, but now after driving a civic I want more out of a car. Any input on this?

Rep Power: 0 What do you mean by wanting more out of the car? Performance? Handling? Looks? There's lots you can do with it. That's if you want to modify a bit. I'd start with suspension if you're gonna keep it. Thats what makes it fun. Just whipping around those corners and windy roads.

Rep Power: 0 Im ready to trade it in. I love the gas milage and everything, but, I seriously don't see a point in spending an insane amount of money on something thats built to be an economy car. Might as well save up and get something better, which is exactly what Im doing
