it depends, if you really like the newer model civics, go for it if its not gonna hassle you or harm you. i'd personally would consider a different car since i want more performance out of a car. but thats all me =|

any spy pics or anything of the 8thgen civic?

Why would you trade a 2 year old car for the same thing? Not only are you losing mad money, you're getting the same damn thing again. That makes absolutely no sense. Its not like you're trading a beaten, tired 95 Civic in because you beat it to hell and it survived, so you want another, its practically brand new right now, if you're gonna trade, you might as well buy something better, or keep it and beat it up a little more.

Your best bet would be to wait until late 2006 early 2007 for a MY07 Civic, that way all the kinks will be worked out in the new model.

agreed, don't waste your time and money getting the exact same car. Wait until the 06's at least are released and trade in if they are any better.

Wait for the 06... Might even be easier to drop a K20 in there if there's not one already... Perhaps just a head and ECU swap?

The only thing that sucks is that I bought my Civic in June 01 and it sucked when there were no intakes, no springs, no exhaust. And when they did start to come out, they were shitty fits and top dollar, I dont realy wanna go through that again with a new body style car.
