I was 24 when I got my 2004 ES. It was my very first owned car and I'm half way on paying it off. I'm going to be 27 soon and not in a big rush on modding my car completely.

You're still young bro and for sure someday you'll want a much better car

I got mine on June 11th, 2004, when I was 17 years, 11 months and 26 days old. Surprise present for my 18th birthday! I'm 19 now.

Mods:
  • 42% window tints ($110)
  • RSX shift **** (free!)
So I've spent $110 in mods...

PS: I'm not going any lower on the tints for now. Cops bitch me too much already and legal % here is 35%. I can't imagine having it lower.

Technically I got my car when i was 13 when my cousin joined the army and left the car, so my dad gave the car to me since he had 2. It was officially my car when i was 16 and I'm gonna turn 18 in 6 days. I just started working on the car after 2yrs of boredom and because most of the money went to my 2nd car. full time student.

2002 Civic Lx
Mods:
VIS Carbon Fiber hood

got my 02 ex coupe in 03 when my son was born. Turned 21 in Sept. so I was 18. I really wanted a ram-air, but being that the civic was gonna be my 5th car, I couldn't afford insurance on the ram-air, thus got stuck having to get the vic. Civic was paid off in 04, only to waste over 20g+ on parts thorugh 05. To many mods to list, but let's just say almost everything on the car has been changed.
