Is it worth it?

Ok, I need to some opinion/help from my fellow 7thgeners.... I was planning to get an EVO for myself but I just realized and after talking to few of mah friends... it is not worth it for me to buy because although I can afford it... monthly payment and insurance will most likely to kill me financially for the next 5 years or so.. right now mah mom pays $300 a month for mah insurance (mah car is paid off... and yes mah mom pays for it.. ).. what more if I drive an EVO and keep the civic? mah insurance will double up.. coz I'm gonna end up paying for it... and it is not worth it unless I have a settled job... anyways, instead I am planning to get this 1990 CRX.. here's the link:

Do you guys think it's worth it? It's not smog legal by the way, but that's not an issue.... do you guys think its worth it? and just buy a car that I really like/want later on when I have a settled job... aw yea I'm buying another car coz I don't really wanna drive mah civic everyday to work/school... and it is stick... I've been wanting to drive stick too!

ok "my" bad dud.. just got use to it.. always use that whenever I chat online.. don't know for some reason got use to that..

anyway, I just found out about the CRX is that the throwout bearing (has to do with the clutch ) is worn so when you put the car in neutral and let out the clutch it makes some noise...

Get the CRX, learn how to drive a stick properly first, then get the Evo. You will be happy when you get an Evo or whatever and know how to drive it properly.
