i'm a honda guy myself, my other ride is a 2005 SI

the 2012s have a low revving 2.4 and are uglier than the 8th gens in my opinion. but you still can't really go wrong with an SI

There are some cheap GPS choices that have cheap tracking, and backup batteries that alert you when the cars power is cut and the battery is turned on. Device itself is like $170 and the battery is $20.

Damn, I feel like you guys are upset that somebody traded a Jeep for a civic. Chill I just wrote that as a goodbye not as a "trash Honda thread". Except for that one guy with the 05' ep3 and even he said the car was ugly. All opinion guys/girls.

they're just trying to help him NOT make a mistake. Same as anyone who would post about X product from Y company not being good. Hell these forums are full of posts about certain companies' poor products and "what did you expect with a kit from _________" comments.

For the same price you could have gotten a 2013 mustang or camaro and had rwd and 300+ horsepower. Civics don't make sense to me if you want something sporty.

in my opinion if i was ever to get a civic Si it would be a 2000... the new one does not live up to what a "Si" was made for........ Honda is just trying to live off what they created 10 years ago now and not living up to be a driving car they created back then... for the price range there are some many other cars on the market... and I have driven both... not impressed with the new one... just my 2 cents... wish you luck..

It's cool we all go through these phases. I wanted a little Honda so I got an eg which I ls/vtec swapped with a gsr trans. I kept it for 2 months got. Bored and got back into my jeep.

You will see... It's not all that fun.

But good luck!

I have an integra as well. It is fun and it saves me a ****load in fuel costs. I definitely prefer driving it on the road over the Jeep.
