civics were cool when you were 16.

Only reason why I still drive one is because i dumped too much money into it and now if i were to sell it i'd get **** all.

Here's abetter question, does it really matter what the majority of any bunch of people thought about your car? I've got a civic for a DD ( Hatchback for around town) and wouldn't trade it for just about any other car on the market (assuming value wasn't an issue and all cars were of equal value). I've got another civic ( i sold my E36 mint M3 for) that I wil exclusively use for a part time track and "very" occassional street usage. It's actually a hell of a lot more fun than the M on track and I'm just getting used to it. I could give a Sh_t what anyone thought when I'm maximizing both cars for their ultimate affordable usage. My Track civic is almost worth nw what my M was and it only had 100kms when I sold it and I just gotta say, it's twice as fun on the track. The Bimmer forum guys just cringed when I toldem. Oh well, one day maybe they'll catch on too.

Long live the K20Z1!!

imho clean crx's look sexxy. when i say this people look weird at me, but i dont really like any new cars. i like older, more square body shape. also the way i see it, if you can pull up to some spoiled kid with a corvette and take him with your civic, you know that you did something right. i believe in building a car yourself and making it the way you want it. i dont think i would ever buy a new car because there are too many things i would change, so might aswell buy an old civic, dump the same amount of money as you would for a new car but make it exactly the way you want it. downside is cant re-sell for sh*t.
so i would say civics are cool, as long as they are in the right hands

Your plain jane, base model 7th or 8th Gen that are everywhere these days, or your rusted-out EG with a fartcan, not cool.

A new Si, CRX, S2000.... all cool IMO.

I think they are cool, as long as they are stock or tastefully modded. I think putting in regular gas, low insurance costs and only oil changes required is very cool.

I disagree with the comment about the 8th Gen base model.

Our cars reflect our individuality. All our cars rock!

wonder what whould happen if you posted this poll on a honda forum like H-tech or superhonda? or even better post it on a non - honda site, not something like vortex where you know they'll just talk smack but something like GTcars. this is a civic site and your gonna get bias results.

CRX's are cool if I was starting over and could find one from cali or japan that would be my starting point. I'll never get rid of me EG tho having started there. Even when I bought my car the guy had a 91 CRX Si with only 15k on it. He offered me that car for 6g's but I only had 5 to spen at the time. This car was mint he bought it new and then his dad died and he inherited a prostreet camaro and never really drove the rex. This was in 03 and the car still smelled new inside. It mostly just sat in his garage next to his camaro and only came out for an hour or so, for really nice sunday drive. Man what I'd have done for a grand that day.

This is quite true. Outside the civic community, they all think Civics are riced econo boxes driven by douchebag, street racing teenagers. Same issue for me, I could easily afford another "cool" car but I don't want to. At my work all the engineers that drive BMW 335I's, 350Z, V8 Mustang's have that image in their head and ask me questions like "hows your spine on that suspension?"chuckles", "you pick up jail-bait with that?" "Wheres your gino beats?" and it goes on, but those are the most memorable ones. My car is all stock also besides a oem skirt package and suspension and they say that stuff.

A stock or clean modded civic can never go out of style but the Riced out ones are NOT cool and have been out of style for many years now.
