Pros/ Cons- Honda Civic SIR

[Nalgene]

Thinking about buying a 2002 Honda Civic SIR.
Im sure there are people here that own one. I would like to hear the pros and cons of them. Like insurance, gas, reliability, etc.
Any other opinions welcome.
Thanx

There's also a review by AsianCaucasian, but I couldn't find it and didn't feel like waiting for this slow ass 28.8K connection to load.

better power and engine than older civics....if you like the styling i sayu go for one......other than that its a sweet car but some would need to get used to the styling

the first time i saw one i totally fell in love, i was gonna get an integra but i couldnt help it.. i had to get the civic.. the car has a little kick, good on gas, fun to drive, awesome handling and the dash mounted shifter is so much more comfortable,.. and dont forget the endless possibilities for mods!. hope that helps you decide.. (CMX67.. has a 2004 with 7000kms takeoverlease for 320/mon or something)..

Yeah im seriously contemplating buying one. It seriously is one of my favorite cars. I love the styling.
Stampede toyota has a 2002 SIR for just under 20k with 35k kms. Im tempted but at the same time need to think about going back to school and other major expenses. Man I hate priorites.

Edit
Whats "CMX67"?

whoa thats a pretty good price, check out that one for the take over lease though, i should have got that one.. less kms lower payments.. just a high residual... aw well...

You can modify leased cars.
I dunno, ill see the terms and everything. Also have to find out how much insurance is. Thats the big question.
I really want to start going to the meets and crusies, im feeling a little left out. hahaha :P

I dont think Ill be doing much modding to it. Im seriously considering it, weighing my options.

Do it! I absolutely love my car. When I was first deciding on which car to buy I was THE only one who chose the SiR over the rest and damn am I glad.

[Nalgene]

well no worries, not getting one. Rethought my priorities. Car is not at the top of the list, school is. So I am getting a much cheaper car. Thanx for your opinions though.
