It's not whether its a good idea, or bad idea. If you prefer the manual (which I do) then go for it. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] It's all about what YOU want. Just make sure it ain't gonna cost you too much to do this swap. I mean...if you would've done it when you first bought the car, you could have saved about a grand. You might end up losing on this one. Just weigh the pros and cons. I am sure everyone here will be more than helpful in providing you with some. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

I wouldn't do that. Just go trade it in at the dealership since they'll jack your trade value higher than
if you were to sell it privately. Also you'd pay tax only on what's left over. Otherwise if you sell it
on your own and go buy a new 2k1 manual you'll be paying tax on the whole price. You'll lose out
a bit for sure, but if manual is what u want, then go for it... you'll feel better with that stick in your hand later [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG]

I say stick with a 2k1..everyone and their grandma has a suped up 2000 civic..but there aren't anywhere near as many 2k1's. I ay we all ban together to make the 2k1 civic the most frequently modified street racer since the last SI.
