Nissan's interiors are very cheap.... all of them. Besides, a Civic EX (top of the line) coupe manual trans. is $16,500. That gives you power everything, moonroof, and is the EXACT same price as a Chevy Cavalier Z24. MUCH better handling, performance, reliability, and tons of value compared to the Chevy. I'm not saying Honda can do no wrong, but their designs over the last 5 years are becomming better built, more affordable, better performing, and even more reliable. Value is just as much a factor, you must understand. If not, I'd buy a Bently Arnage Turbo R or Lamborghini Murcielago.
