gettin rid of the 7th gen civic..

I recently decided it will cost to much money to make my 7thgen "fast". my car is slow as hell plus it is automatic. the few mods that they do make for it cost way to much (ex: turbo $3,000), there is just no hope. so next week i am selling my car and getting an 04 rsx type-s. faster, more mods, looks better, 6 speed! what do you guys think?

me myself and I are more into luxury cars b/c it has way more features, options and gadgets than our civics so sooner or later I'm bumping up to a G35 coupe if not a mini cooper S.

If and when I get the trading bug again, I'm leaning more toward a bigger car with at least a v6. My current favorite is the Mazda 6. My 2nd choice would be another Prelude...I miss my old '93 Si.

The Scion TC looks interesting. Worth trading in my 03 Vic for?

I'm at the point now where I would never trade my car. I'm getting a turbo in a few years, only because I like the car so much.

But congrats, the S is a great car and very fast.
