Default I realllllly want another Honda.

OK so I explained this in the Civic tech forum, but I sold my civic and bought a 2005 Cavalier. I got it at a good price, it's a very desirable car, I'm going to sell it in June and make money on it. Even though this makes SENSE to me, please continue to bash me for buying a Cav. Anyway, I want to replace it of course. I had a 2000 VP sedan. I'm looking at either some of the older 95ish hatch civics, or I'd love a Del Sol if I could afford one that didn't have twelve rebuilt motors and a body kit. I suppose I would spend at most 7500, but I want a reliable daily driver that gets better than 23ish city. 7500 is about it so don't tell me to buy an RSX Also if this gets completely off topic, it's the basement, so feel free. But advice is nice <3

Unless you had to unload the Civic for financial reasons, your decision to buy a Cavalier leaves me dumbfounded. The depreciation on any J-body is suicide-inducing, so get the hell out of the car ASAP.

Okay, just because somebody else will say it...

For $7500, you can buy yourself a CRX.

I'll only put 2k miles on the car, and I know I can get more than what I have in it. I've heard strange things about electrical confusions of CRX swaps. comments? What year prelude, so I can look the MPG up
