two fallbacks, there overpriced, and the new k20's don't rev up as high as the b16's, but I heard the handle real well stock, you don't wanna lower it too much. I would spend less and the the older sir coupe instead, that's my opinion though.

accords are heavy... like j-lo's thicky thighs heavy.

but, the new v6 engine's and 6speed tranny is great for highway cruising...and by cruising i mean cruising past 200.

I think they are priced about right, great handling, decent power (better than the previous gen) and IMO good looks, especially with the GFX package.

You could also consider a base or premium RSX in this price range (uses the same motor) if you want a little more luxury or different styling.

i love my 2002 SIR. For me i love the looks of the 2000, but it just wan't big enough for me. I am 6'4, and i had a 2000 Si, and it felt so small to me! So when i sat in the new SIR it fit me perfect, i never hit my head and i loved the interior, and the shifter, and the looks! I also like the fact that no one likes them! I love the looks i get in it! You get noticed way more, cause no one has them! As for the price, i got mine for 22,000, cause i got a 2002 when the new 2003 were coming! So i got a sweet deal! i am happy with it! Great handling, great power, and super interior!!!... anyways that is how i sum it up! Oh and also they have great power potential!!

Absolutley love this car. The k-series engines have great potential although no one wants to give them a try. These cars can hold their own. I have raced several 2000 SiR's, same stuff done to both cars or close enough and I pulled on them. A For looks just look at my car. \/

Most people can't seem to accept the "European Style Look" that the new hatch has. Honestly I didnt like it at first too but the look grows on you.

I dunno it is like a powerful car, and yeah for hell it has good potential. I like most european cars, but i dunno bout this Civic. The hatch looks almost like a cut off van for some reason. The front is very nice though.

K20 motor is the future of power

just look at the turbo kits that Cybernation is churning out and you'll understand what I mean. Or maybe look at the new Toda camshafts for the K20 and you'll how much N/A power means
