CIVIC22

hey guys. i was on this board a long time ago when i had my boosted 93 hatch. well i parted with that a little over two years ago and bought a 03 srt 4 which i recently had to sell (today actually) because im in the army and moving to belgium. they wanted 7000 a year insurance.

sooooooo yesterday i bought a 98 civic dx for 6k from some old guy. his uncle was 92 and owned the car and died. the car has a d16y7 motor in it which sucks but the key to me buying this car was it had 26000 ORIGINAL miles on the car.

so needless to say its good to be back

wow, nice buy

$7000 a year

CIVIC22

yeah when you owe money on the car its crazy. but the civic will be like 70 a month. and with only 23000 miles on it (original) it should run for a while. the only that sucks is i dont really care for the d16y7 thats in the car. not much i can do to it is there?

u can save a LOT of gas and insurance $$

i had a d16z6 in my 93 hatch that i boosted and that thing was crazy fast. this is a y7 tho so i dont know. oh and the car has 23600 not 28 lmao.
