my parents are idiots and got ripped off by the ***** ass car salesman. the car was originally on lease but my parents decided to buy it for my sister but my sister moved to N.Y - so i had to take over the payments because my parents couldn't afford it. i calculated it and the whole thing will be a 7 year payoff of $300/month. i still owe $11,000 and i will be paying $27-28g'z for a 98 4door civic ex automatic that i didnt even want in the first place.
i was hoping to sell the car for at least $10g'z, and then paying off the car and getting a 96 hatch for $5,000. i thought it was a good plan but some of my friends are saying otherwise. any adivce or opinions?
thanks for the info on the hatch and the help. 
OWNED!!!
I say really consider how into the hatch and the financial dedication for the build up before you switch cars.

in 96-97 you could only open the hatch from inside the car. in 98 they switch to the handel in the trim around the LP. um i think the dx may had different shaped speaker grills. i got the rear deck thing from a dx to put in my cx and it did not fit at all. different wings on teh cx and dx. oh dx come with back speakers too.
nice job
