If i had the chance to start over i would have gotten a 5 speed, but like a few others said i didnt want one at the time. i had a worked 96 toyota camry, when i sold it and bought my em2 i said i was done hooking up cars, so i bought the auto cause i live in ny and city driving sucks with a 5 speed in traffic all day, who knew i was gonna hook it up, what sucks now even if i wanted to do a swap i would have to convert it to a 5 or 6 speed 
. unless i find a nice h22 auto out there...

Rep Power: 0 I would have gotten a WRX instead of the civic. if not that, would have gotten a manual instead of an auto. after that, I would have gotten a RSX-S motor with the 6 speed tranny put in instead of the body kit.

Rep Power: 302 I would have bought a WRX at that time... As of now, nothing but an Evo or Sti. Those cars are the best.
If I were to stay FWD, Neon SRT-4 without question. Those cars are just plain sick.

Rep Power: 0 i like how everyone says k20a2 swap with turbo or rsx-s with a turbo... lets face it they suck. F.I. is **** on those motors. i raced a rsx-x with a jr supercharger on it and it only beat me by 1 sec. i ran a 15.4 and he ran a 14.38 or some ****. if i could do it all over i would say **** honda and gotten the rx-7 i was looking at and not gotten full coverage cuz that was what i couldnt afford on it

Rep Power: 0 I would've bought a used BMW 540i 6 speed instead. Luxury sedan, capable of high 13 second 1/4 runs with minimal mods, drop a phat bill on some 19" HRE rims and be done with it.

I would have never bought a 7thgen. As far as I am concerned I am done with the weak little 4 bangers. I have got to go with a v6 next time. Something RWD or AWD. Maybe a 350z, or a TL something like that. I really like the WRX STI but they want too much money for that.

start over again... i just bought mine a month ago cuz im broke and my mommy got a deal.
Never have gotten a 7thGen.
GSR or 99+ SI or 96 240sx with S13/S14 swap for some drifting.
not too late to sell it anyhow since i got my 03 lx sedan for 10.5

Rep Power: 0 If I could start over, first thing I would have done is gotten a 5spd. EX instead of auto LX. Next thing I wouldnt have done is put the exhuast on it. Only things I did good to that car were put in a CD player and a sub., an intake, and rims...But now it's gone and I'm gettin an 04' SI tomorow, so I guess I am starting over in a way?
