Why did it decide to do that?

I would stay with the civic or go with integra if you want that b18 engine, IMO that the only thing the integra is good for. But in the end it's your car. best of luck with what ever you go with

The Nissan doesn't impress me all that much. So I say get a new version of what you had unless you can find an ITR which is probably more than you want to spend.

i personally hate the SE-R, how much money do you plan on spending? there's other cars you may want to consider.

How much do you want to spend?? I myself have been thinking of stripping my civic and selling it in the spring. Not sure what I want to get though.

I agree on getting the gsx but would probably pay an arm and a leg for it so I'd go for integra GSR. I like civics as much as the next person but don't like the 127hp the ex comes with but do like the 170 the GSR comes with.

Since you had a vic I would say a new 2k3 if you liked it, if not then go with the teg I don't think that the SE-R's are that great either.

I would say you probably should get something not even halfway considered a sports car since im guessing your insurance company wasnt too happy when your civic "decided" to flip over and set stuff on fire....

..well i was at the honda dealer and saw this silver 2k2 ex manual with like 800 miles i think for like 16500 or soemthing.. the interior was amazing and the body as well as under the car was unscratchd. Im not a fan ofthe stock silver paint and i was wondering what it would run me for a custom paint job, this guy i new before his civ got stolen and wreckds had silver and it cahnged colors in the diff shades of light i think he said it cost him like $4000 just for the paint

$18,000 should get you into a low mileage Integra Type R - I test drove one last year and it was a life-changing experience - I still hate myself for not buying it.
