My Civic is dead!
 
Today i was driving home when i saw a car turning left i was going strait i tried to avoid it and she clipped me i guess my tire hooked on and she sent me into a dodge truck :mad: :tdown: :cry: :_doh: i get out of my car to see my back wheel has fallen off my wings west body kit is totally screwed my altezza was half way down the street my carbon fiber mirror was broken my front right tire got screwed and my mini me commando wing chipped i am so sad to see what i built go done it was custom painted and had a lot of money into it.If its not fixable what do you guys suggest i get? i want something faster than the Civic

WhiteCastle 10-14-2004 01:55 AM

well time to get a fast car :D . Im glad your alright you count alot more than any car does. Cars can be replaced....people can't.

Da1lyDr1ver 10-14-2004 01:56 AM

that sux. do you have any pics?
if you get a new car, dont get something on the same platform as the civic (such as rsx, etc.). i think thats just dumb if you could get a better car.

Michalo187 10-14-2004 02:00 AM

yeah i will put up pics later and yeah my life is more important i am pretty sad but thats life! I like the s2000 but they are expensive

Rx7_Fan 10-14-2004 02:10 AM

I would suggest an RSX, keep it in a honda family

Michalo187 10-14-2004 02:14 AM

RiceRocketeer 10-14-2004 02:24 AM

incubus7d 10-14-2004 07:09 AM

Man everyone is getting their civics messed up this is like the 3rd or 4th post this week, this sux!! Im sorry to hear man. Check out the WRX!!! that what id do to replace!!

jameStype 10-14-2004 10:21 AM

even the base rsx is faster than the civic and it has around 160hp stock. take a look at those. they are suppose to be very nimble on the road and fun to drive.

thrash_273 10-14-2004 10:24 AM

i feel bad for you bro.... hmmmm. get an si if you can afford more i suggest evo mr.

Michalo187 10-14-2004 10:33 AM

How much are the evos and my little bro wants the wrx i dont wanna get his dream car but i do like the evos

WhiteCastle 10-14-2004 10:43 AM

get a corvette!! well hey never know :D
go with an srt-4 good reliable cheap and fast

Skunk2ner 10-14-2004 10:49 AM

i've seen evo's in the paper for $27k
other thing to consider:
used Integra Type R?

Overboost 10-14-2004 11:08 AM

Start rubbing your neck. Hurts doesn't it? I'd say it really hurts huh? That S2000 is closer than you think.

Michalo187 10-14-2004 11:30 AM

I like the s2000 cause its Honda

Michalo187 10-14-2004 11:34 AM

How much hp do the type r integras produce whats another fast honda with around 200 hp

incubus7d 10-14-2004 11:36 AM

WRX STi like $30,000 +
WRX regular like $27,000
EVO like $30,000 +

incubus7d 10-14-2004 11:37 AM

Get an Accord V6 arnt they up in the 200's. Type R is like 190ish i think but that snot to the wheels, i had a GSR it was stock 170 or 180 dammit i forget

thats true, kill the bitch to show how much aggrivation she caused you...

jk...

if you're talking about cars in the 20-30k range, well I dont know if thats your budget, but other ppl mentioned cars in that range.. the Accord 6speed V6 is a luxury kinda car that has some get up.. 3.0L 240hp if im not mistaken.. I saw a black one on the showroom floor when I got my car.. damn they're nice lookin.. :rockon:

Michalo187 10-14-2004 11:52 AM

I look the Integra type R does it pump out 197? does it beat the Rsx type S

Michalo187 10-14-2004 11:55 AM

I just saw 0 to 60 for the 1997 type r is 6.5 and quarter mile is 14.7 thats fast enough is the rsx 6.8 or 6.1 cause car and driver said 6.8 14.9 but other websites say 6.1 14.8

shmik1 10-14-2004 11:57 AM

u check edmunds.com? I have no idea who is more/most accurate tho..

Michalo187 10-14-2004 12:06 PM

naw i checked some other one
which do you think is faster i think the rsx might be at the start

HAHAHAHHA why not just fraud your way into an S2000....no problem with that

what about a G35 or 350Z!?!?! fast and luxurious

wanna keep it in the honda family...take a TSX and screw the RSX

Michalo187 10-14-2004 01:12 PM

Good to go hahaha but i already said nothing happened to me

Michalo187 10-14-2004 01:18 PM

Is Gsr the same as Type R?? what other type r vehicles are there

tripledoublegs 10-14-2004 01:23 PM

The gsr is weaker and doesn't handle as good as the Type-R.
I wouldn't get an acura though. Just go for a stock wrx, and put some simple bolt ons on it

silvic03 10-14-2004 01:37 PM

no, the type R and GSR are two different models...kinda like the difference between an EX and an SI

:rofl:
sounds like a plan

Michalo187 10-14-2004 01:57 PM

hahahaha i wish the wrx is too fast for me i just want a faster than civics and most cars but slower than v8s

acurastype01 10-14-2004 03:59 PM

dude im sorry to hear bout all this hope everything turns out ok in the end

sorry to hear

Importracer 11-16-2004 06:47 PM

dude, fck the hondas and acuras, ive got three letters for you G T O.... You'll work any import with it and it looks bad ass!

wrussi 11-16-2004 07:13 PM

if the insurance is going to cover it go ahead and get a new car my suggestions are
96+ gsr
rsx s
celica gt-s if u like the weird look
civic si
97-99 acura CL
00 acura TL
new accord coupe v6

it depends on how much $$ u have

you would have a hard time working an EVO MR Maybe from a roll but not from a stop, but they are like 37K. I don't know what a GTO costs :confused:

TemjinX2 11-16-2004 07:39 PM

well if your looking into the 20-30k range, then i say get a used evo. I've seen used evos go for 23-27k on the evo forums. Another suggestion is maybe a used lexus is300, i've seen them go for around 23k. The interior looks kinda crappy when compared to honda interiors, but you can always change it. Looks wise i personally think evo > wrx. Dont get a Type R, that car get stolen so fast its not even funny, everyone wants that engine. If you want to keep it to a car with two doors, then i would just get a 05 type S. Stock gsr is only 185 at the crank and i think the type R is 195 or 200 at the crank. The k20's has better internals then the gsr engines, so if you want to boost later on you dont have to build up the internals as much.

lkm 11-16-2004 07:40 PM

I wouldn't get an RSX, base or type S are not worth it. On the streets around here, they get spanked all the time by 6thgens that are swapped.

If you want some go and allota show, tC. camry engine, nuff said.
Brute perfomance, Srt-4
little some torque steer- sentra spec v
track car- mazda 3 or a used 6

all under 20k and won't be embarassed on the streets!

the interior of a LEXUS IS300 looks crappy compared to Honda interiors? :screwy: Lol what honda's are you referring to? I'd take an IS300 over just about any honda/Acura, especially considering most are FWD and the IS is RWD

sorry for the confusion, i meant evo interior. I was too lazy to edit the post and move the sentence. The is300 has a very nice interior, i think the evo interior is kinda crappy for a car in that price range then again it designed to be rally not luxury. My only complaint about the is300 is the sound dampening. Toyota went pretty cheap on the sound dampening on that car. I know its suppose to be a sports sedan but its still lexus. When i helped my friend dynomat his 03 is300 i was shocked to see that his trunk had less sound dampening material then my 04 civic. You dont realize how huge sound dampening is until you go from a car with lots of sound damping like a camry to one with almost none like a civic. I use to have a camry, driving on the road was like being isolated in your own little room. Sometimes i'd even forget the engines even on, that how quiet it was. I love the sportiness of my civic, i just hate talkin to people on my phone while i'm drivin on the freeway, way too much road noise

I like the is300 or the evo for my choice of 4 doors. Another car i like is the mazda 6, with the sports package. I know its suppose to be a family car, but its look pretty sporty to me.

wonderz 11-17-2004 03:42 AM

i like the IS300 too, but the problem is its too little hp for that class of car. You might want to consider the BMW 3-series too.

gotarheels03 11-17-2004 12:33 PM

yes but the power potential of the IS300 is amazing.
