Pitch_BlacK 04-03-2006 12:07 AM

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 :tup:

karizzle 04-03-2006 12:09 AM

seems so far that a lot of civic owners r a lot younger than i thought. thought most of you were early to mid 20's. most ppl our age r driving rusted out broken PO

EM2typeflex 04-03-2006 01:09 AM

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.
