well said... 
i drive a 90 integra... and i like it. it might not be new (or fast as of yet) but... i love the way it looks. i'm a fan of more boxy looking cars.
i do like the front end on the newer civics... i still can't get into the back end or sides... 
sucks about the bmw, but shit happens! i'm glad that you're ok, tho!
EDIT:  I thought they redesigned the front end slightly for the 2004 model... the headlights have different lines.  and the coupe seems to have a differently styled grill.
