sell your 2k1
use your gsx as your daily driver and fix up the SI



If not sell the SI engine, or look into selling parts

IMO

use the GSX as a project car, use the SI as a daily driver and sell the 2k1.

GSX is the top of the Eclipse line I believe? Turbo? Sell the POS 2k1, make the Si your daily driver, and make the GSX your project car.

sell my dad got me the si for my 21st b-day ....cause i 90 gsx was makin weird noises so i knew it was his time to go..but i loved that car..turbo, awd..my first car but there would be too myuch money to fix it up. when the si got totaled my firend sold me his gsx for 7,000
he had it for 6 months so i am paying his payment for the next 4 years. i got a really good deal cause he paid 15000 down payment for that car and he drove it for half a year so he sold to me very cheap. but after i got the new job i didn't want to put so many mile son my baby so i got the 2k1 civic. and now my damn sis wants the matrix...god damn toyota..makin stupid cars...got me into this conflict....

Sell the Si... im sick of all these ppl ON A 2k1CIVIC board hating on the 2K1...[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] it just doesnt make sense! If you dont like it then SELL IT and shut up your complaining..
btw ricerocket... none of those comments were directed towards you.. the way i see it you have your fast car in your eclipse... you have your fuel efficient daily driver in your 2k1 civic... then you have a piece of metal thats not being used in your garage(Si).. so sell the Si.. its doing nothing for you
Keep the GSX as your ongoing project car. peace

what I dont understand is if you wrecked the Si why insurance didnt pay to have it repaired? Or dont you have insurance?

I don't need to sell my 2k1 - I already have an Si if you were directing that towards me [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

Give up the 2k1. You can get more money out of it than the Si. As for the Si and the Eclipse, I can't really help you there except to say if I were you, I'd use the GSX as the project, and fix the Si.

Tough deal... I'd pay $50 bucks a month for a storage unit at a storage place and keep all the cars... get to the SI when you can, or sell that one since it's smashed anyways.

(Why did insurance not pay to fix?)

OK... here im gonna use some logic and less bitterness this time [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]
Why dont u sell your 2k1 to your sister to save her from that ugly beast Matrix that she wants... use that money to fix yor Si and then just take the 2K1 whenever you feel like driving it again... (if you even like it)
