Civic worth the 8g buyback

First off I didnt lease on my own will my mom got the car in 00 then I got my license later so no flames plz. After seeing all the things that have to be done to get performance out of this car seems like its gonna be some serious money for modding. So far I have Rims, springs, CAI, altezzas, exhaust and all my stock parts so I can put those back on. I was wondering you guys think it's worth it to keep the civic and pay the buy back or maybe put it towards a 6th Gen Sir or maybe a down payment on a new on but Stick and not leased? I was also thinking maybe a teg with 4 doors lower insurance a bit but and lots of room for modding. I'm open to opinions on cars that would be good to buy I know insurance is gonna kill me on coupe but I'm willing to sacrifice somewhat since im 18 and insurance is gonna be high anywayz. Thanks in advance. Btw I have most of the money saved up for the buy back and I'll have it by the time I gotta pay the buy back in august.

My advice is to check out the trader.ca website and see what a car in the same kind of condition as yours would sell for.
If its more than the cost of the buy back with your taxes included and since you dont have to finance the remainder I would suggest buying and then selling it for a bit more so you can make back some of the money you put into it.

For example ( buyback is $8000 + PST & GST = $9200.... and if most 2k1 civics are selling for $11000 you buy the car and then list it for a price that is competive enough that if someone is looking in the trader for a civic your car will stand out as a good deal, at least this way even if you sell it for $10,500 you will make some of your money back.

Hope this helps.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG]

but if u buy the car then sell it for profit, make sure u check the market price first cuz depending on the mileage of the car, u might actually lose money.
i mean u can buy a 2001 civic with less than 30,000 kms now for under $16000 cdn (well that's why i saw on trader.ca)
