I come to the conclusion that i am ready to get a car thats more reliable and what not. Im lookin at 1999-2000 civics after riding in Swaggs21 i really like it...or a 97+ Integra. Im prolly gonna finance but the highest im willing to finance is around 7k. Im gonna put down at most or around a 2k down payment for the car. So that it can cut my monthly payments down and insurance wont get me up the pooper. So what route should i take with this. As i would like to get something reliable as I finally have a steady full time job and i am making more then enuff money to make at most $200/monthly car payments.

So i guess what im asking is what route should i go in terms of trying to get the money. I know im going to need a co-signer due to some problems ive had with my credit from different businesses. And also what should i look to pay for the cars i specified.

it will be hard to find a gsr around that range w/ good mileage, but a gs would be in your budget.

integra that is.

Yea I guess the SI and GSR wouldn't make it into your budget. My suggestion would be to go with the Integra over the Civic. After owning 2 EX's and an Integra I would go with the Integra. Are you hung up on a 2 door or 4 door?

dude, a gs integra would be perfect for you. standard package - leather, sunroof, all that good shit. just not a gsr motor.
good on insurance and the ladies will be like DAYAM, that aint no pleather shit right there.

and all integras but the RS and R models has a sunroof

I did just come across a 95 Integra GSR with 102,000 miles for 6k which would put me actually under...but im not sure if i want something with such high miles and pay so much seeing how it is 11 years old as well.
