well my dad has had a new job for a while and hes making more money, and he use to drive the car i sold to him instead of his f250, becuase his truck has too many miles and wants to give it a break for a while.. so he just gotback from the lot and asks me if i want to test the car.. its an 02 honda civic :rolleyes

ok i dont have a problem with civics and i dont think my dad would rice it out but man.. its pretty nice, i dont know the model or whatever but its auto, but was kinda wanting a manual..

so yeah i said to him a couple days ago.. "why not get an s2000 or acura rsx" then he says "i was thinking about the s2000, or maybe a prelude"

gahhh only if he went with the s2000oh well.. its a nice car anyway :ylsuper

Your dad probably wouldn't care about an S2000 if he is pondering a civic, and an auto no less. They aren't bad cars, good gas mileage and decent performance for the engine size.

Yes for a reliable daily driven car the Civic does just fine. I could think of a lot of cars that I wouldn't want to drive and the Civic isn't one of them.

I almost got a new Civic. The door panels feel cheap and everything just seems flimsy compared to my dad's 92 Civic hatchback (hes now considering selling it and getting a Q45).

Yea, I never thought I would care that much about gas mileage until I bought my truck:rolleyes . I can go 4 days on 5.00 worth of gas with the 240, but 5 bucks will maybe get me through one day in the truck. Hondas are by far the best gas mileage cars.
