Default help with suggestions (previous dc2 owners please chime in)

since my integra was stolen the other day i have been wondering if i even want it anymore, it just ruins it for me...

that said what cars do you guys who once had dc2's think i might like? seeing as i'm really not sick of the feel of the car as much as i am sick of worrying about it, it actually getting ripped off was the last straw.

i'm not sure what insurance is goign to give me, i dont know if they will total it seeing as some of the interior is messed up and needs to be completely rewired under the dash and to the fuel pump. needs new parts that cost $$$ like the immobilizer and ECU as well as the entire rear bumper needs to be repainted/ and possibly replaced (it is tweaked, i figure they pushed it down the street with my e-brake on using an SUV or somthing till it got to where i would never notice it being worked on.)

but regardless i dont think the gsr is for me anymore, i was already paying a premium for insurance, now with us making this claim it's going to be horendous.

i'm thinkikng maybe a newer car like an accord ex v6 coupe, or even maybe a toyota celica GT-s

If you like the feel of a GSR, check out a Mazdaspeed Protege.

i doubt he wants to see another car stolen from him.

How about a new SI? Or possibly a FD RX-7? Depends on what you are looking for? Is it handling or is it speed?
