A lot of things are different between the 2 generations. First, there is the look of it...

But anyway, both are nice cars to work with. I personally like 6th gen hatch the most.

haha.... you guys are getting this guy all mixed up. Everyone should know by now that my 6th gen 1998 EJ6 VSM sedan OWN3S all of you, with your EGs and EKs and EFs too. So don't get it twisted... 6th gen sedans, esp the ones 96-98 are the finest Civics ever to come out of a Honda plant. LOL

6th gen sedans are the best but I think bbarbulo has it a bit off, 99-00 civic sedans are the best out of the honda plant

anyone saying the 6th gen sedan is the best is far mistaken... did they even get a vtec motor??? they are just heavy, long, and far underpowered versions of the 5th gen Si hatch....


funny how one comment by me at the top started a huge war between everyone on who's series/ style is best....

and while the 5th gens are the best... anyone saying otherwise is just jealous of the 5th gens and sad they dont have but want one...


FLAME ON
