well after 3 years with the civic and countless time put into it im going to sell it. it hurts me deep inside to part with it, no seriously. that car got me through some rough times and it kept on going no matter how much abuse i threw at it, but i think its time to move on to a newer, more grown up type of car. ive been looking at the 2003 saab 9-3 turbo, subaru impreza wrx sti, VW jetta turbo, and some other cars mostly of german engineering. im selling the civic at the end of the school year to a kid in my class for $6000.
As somebody who just bought an STi, let me say this about the cars you listed.
Saab 9-3... Good car, Subaru Based.. Decent power, comfy, quiet.
STi... Balls out Power, 4 doors, same room as the 9-3, Noisy inside fair gas mileage.
VW Jetta.. Hope you like replacing trannies, coilpacks, MAF's, & Power Windows.
Then I saw your post saying $13k. Good luck finding an STi for $13k. I paid ALOT more than that, and I got a hell of a deal on my '04.
600/13= 46.153846
