at least 5 more years. I have a 04 Ex which I bought brand new w/ 6 miles on it and I wanna get my $ worth out of it before I get a different car. Also I'm a soph in college and I dont want to get a new car anytime soon since I'm trying to save $ to move out. Also that vic should easily last until 150K w/o much problem and I only drive about 15K a year so if I keep it 5 more years it would be at like 90K. But I kinda wanna keep it to see how long it will run w/o any problems. And right now I got about 22k on it... So who knows... maybe I'll keep it until it turns 8 or 9 or 10. Maybe longer who knows.... I have no idea what I'm going to do

10 years. save money. i like it. i travel around 200-800 miles a week so i cant see having any less than 35 mpg. plus this way i will have atleast 8 years of no car payment and lower insurance.

Until it dies, then a k20 - to much stuff to pay for and a car payment is at the bottom of that list.

yeah no kidding, im runin mine till it dies too. Ive been making payments so long that it would be dumb to sell it after i finish paying. its great on gas, looks hot and is reliable as hell.

but things change. i start my full time job next week, i should be floating in money soon. i really considered selling when i saw pics of the si concept. but now that real pics are out, its not nearly as hot, im not selling!

not to mention- ive had that car from day one, i couldnt let it get into the wrong hands by selling it!

Why would u even spend the $ on the civic if u just bought it this year modded it alot and now u wanna get an EVO? Why didnt u just buy the evo in the 1st place? Or did u decide to get an EVO after u didnt make many gains on the mods?

mines about 40% paid off, ive had it since feb 04, and i have 38k miles on it now. im thinking either finish paying it off and keep it, get an s2k or something on the side, then eventually swap. after all the stuff i've done to it, i dont think i ever wanna sell it. ive spent about 4700 aftermarket.

At the time I wanted a civic, cuz I couldn't afford an EVO, now my girl, is gonna help me get an EVO. Don't get me wrong I love Honda and I love my lil civic. It's pretty quick for a SOHC. I just want a lil more power and my girl said we could go look at them. So that is my answer
