My Civic has been an awesome car. Totally problem free, fun to drive and cheap to maintain. However, it's 7 years old and showings it's age and starting to cost me money to maintain. I was planning on selling it this fall, paying off some debts and taking my wife's 03 Civic. She was going to buy an RSX.

Lately I have been thinking of getting rid of my car now and she can get her RSX when the lease is up on her Civic. I'll have a newer car again, but I'll still owe money on it. I found this EP3 at the dealer I got our cars from.

What would you do? Keep the current car and be debt free until I can get the wife's 03. Or, trade my car in for this and be paying for it for the next few years.

2002 Honda Civic SiR with 48227 km. $17000. I've always liked these cars and they have really come down in price.

how attached are you to your car. i mean if you were gonna sell it anyways, I guess not that attached, so yeah, go for it. but 1st make sure clear title and no electrical gremlins in it's history!!

imported_kIeRaN

i say you go for it, SIR's are yummy

imported_phuviano

EP3 all the way. I sorta regret not considering the SIR instead of my si coupe. I still like my car, but I guess the SIR has the 160hp over the 127hp.

hey dude,

Just get a base rsx..same motor..better interior. Not a FAN of the EP3's...looks like a small minivan.

Base RSX goes for around 17-19 G's rite now...

GinoLicious

Go for it.. I would.

imported_viper_2_4

ya, those SiR aren't bad.....I would take a base RSX tho over one....but not a bad option none the less

DumbasSi

The base RSX's are just that, base. A Premium yeah, but a base no. Besides, the wife plans on buying a Type-S eventually. I'll check it out tomorrow when I'm getting my oil changed.

ahh come on man. Yer cars is getting old?
15 years and counting with my pile of rice.

Hondas last for a very long time if well maintained. Like my dad, he has a 98 four door and that thing has NEVEEER caused him problems, and i keep telling him that that car will be with him for awile.

But anyway i dont get how ppl can come on this board and ask for opinions, i mean its gonna be your car so go for wut u really want. Its not like yer gonna take our advice anyway lol :P

imported_SiR_YO

wanna buy mine?

imported_Old_skool4g

^^^ yers is pretty much the only one i like around this town

imported_SiR_YO

thanks yo... that means a lot.. there are tons of ep3 haters out there... it's aiight though.. that's one of the reasons why you don't see too many on the road.. but ya.. if there are any serious buyers out there........

imported_Old_skool4g

da ***** is wrong with u lol dont sell

imported_My Blue Si

IMO, I wouldn't do it, only b/c I don't really like those SIR's. If it was the 99-00 SIR, then thats a different story. But if your going with a newer model which you are, I would rather grab an SI.

imported_Torrey

Mike, a minivan so soon???
You'll never hear the end of it from me if you get one of those things.

Seriously, I'd rather be DEBT-FREE than have to OWE someone money, especially if its over a car.

DumbasSi

I'd even consider a very low k 99-00 SiR if I could find one at a Honda dealer. I've liked the "Minivans" ever since they came out, but at 25g's, kinda pricey. Now there's lots of them for around 17g's and that makes them more appealing to me.

i saw go for it... its nice.. but if i were thinking about a new car now.. i'd stay away from a honda... not that i dunt like it but i want more luxury... and comfort.. and a nice sedan.. acura or lexus

98siG

i'd rather take a base rsx than one of those sir's and 7 years old isn't that old for a honda, a ford ya but not a honda and i'd rather have a new coupe like phuviano i think the 04's look mint

Gunmetalef

or a nice tsx
