ok so tuesday i was driving home from lunch on a back road doing about 35 mph around a turn and i hit a patch of ice. i then spun with my front end hitting a telephone pole which sent my spinning even more. then i went sideways into a tree (passengers side hitting the tree) and over some rocks. im lucky i didnt get seriously hurt. well i got the bill from the shop and it came out to 6800$ with 90+ hrs of labor. my dad is talking with the insurance guy today to see if they are going to total it or not, but they probably will. sorry no pics i was too pissed to take any. if my car is totaled what do you guys think i should get next with about an 8k budget? i was thinking a prelude or integra

Sucks to hear about your car man, glad you're ok though... Yeah I'd look at a 6th gen SI.

thanks guys, what are you opinions on getting a prelude though? cuz right now thats at the top of the list

high performance desire + limited budget = wishful thinking

very truthful.

Also if your heart is already set on a prelude, y do u need our input?

mattyg23

i just want to get your personal opinions on the car, like why should i or should i not get it

virtueoftresx

no offense but i used to drive a prelude and vic have more potential

Sux about your accident, get somthing with a little better traction!

Put 8k down on an S2k, There's nothing like a Rwd sports car.

i know the civic has more potential but i dont exactly have the budget to make something faster
