infamous is an unknown quantity at this point
Under $5k

I want your opinion guys on what kind of civic/acura to buy for under $5k. If you rebuilt the engine is this the same as new engine? I'm planning to get this new car in a bout a month or so, so let me know.

you can get alot of honda/acura's for 5k. just look. and rebuilding is not the same as a new engine. you will still have X about of miles on the block, crank, and head. Thats if you replace all the internals. But it will run a whole hell of a lot better/stonger on a good rebuild.
