wow.. thanks for all of your comments..

for those who say keep my car.. well.. i'll post some pics of the damage on the side later.. i know it's fixable but really, i just need a fresh start. my old civic i got 2 years ago and it was used.. no benefit of a warranty or anything, so it's just a pile of crap! the hood is dented from where 2 of my "friends" (2 SEPERATE occasions!!) decided to jump onto the hood and roll allllll the way down, and these guys were not exactly small guys. anyway...

i really think it's Mike's car thats making me want one even more.. everytime i see that damn car..

it may be under powered.. it may handle a little worse than the 6th gen.. but i guess i'll find out when i test drive one. the good thing about that is that my sister will be the sales rep going with me so i can really open the car up if i want.

thank you for all of your input...

now, how about mods?
