all i know is that I got a used/crashed 2002 SIR civic for 5500 bux and its costing me 2000 to fix everything......thats 7500 for a car thats worth something like 18,000-20,000........go for used cars....especially the ones with slight damage that u KNOW can be fixed...like a bumper..hood, headlights..etc.......people just think its worthless after its been hit...lol..thats how i make quite a bit of money...

as for the seasons...i am not sure..i guess after winter...cuz thats when alot of people smash their cars...(for me anyways)..hehehe...

oooh oooh!!!...and i am also seriously thinking about buying another EG hatch now....its painted blue with some kinda flakes in it...has 250,000k on the car...80,000 on an SI motor..but it needs a new bumper...headlights+rad (taken out for another car...the rad support is still good+the frame)...and apparantly theres NO rust...at least showing since its been repainted...and that is for something like 800bux from an old lady who's son left her the car and went to university in the states after he hit some kinda mailbox...lol
