Well, Vlad and Oleg knows that I do way too much research about cars, mainly to see which one would fit me best, but change my mind daily. :headbang  
I am really tired of my 93 Civic, its just not a great commuter car. I am trying to figure out which car I should go with next. As of today I am leaning toward Integra ;D

Here’s what I want in the car:  
\<\> Some performance, nothing too crazy I can deal with 150HP but nothing over 200HP  
\<\> Good fuel economy 24city/30high  
\<\> Has to have air bags  
\<\> Has to be easy to fix, this is why I mainly lean toward Honda because of a huge online support.  
\<\> Cheap to fix, so no VW, BWM \<\<EDIT BMW\>\> :stfu  
\<\> FUN to drive  
\<\> Has to be quieter then 93 Civic HB on the HighWay, I just can’t stand the read/engine noise.  
\<\> Price range of up to $7500

So after a bunch of research here what I came up with:  
96-up Acura Integra  
97-99 Acura CL  
98-01 Honda Accord 2dr  
99-01 Honda Civic Si  
97-00 Honda Prelude  
02-up Acura RSX (will have to save up for this one)  
01-04 Civic Si

If you have a car in mind, post!

Thank you!

Hmm, never heard of BWM :ponder :haha

I’d say the RSX, they are SUCH a fun car to drive esp. the Type-S. What about the EP3 Civic Si? (01-04) they are nice and have everything you stated above.

EP3 Si \>\>

You mean bad fuel economy and removing the engine to change head gaskets, thats exactly kind a car I want to have :lol  
Good try though I looked into 2.5RS before. I would love a 03 WRX but don’t have the $$$ for it.

Well, I’ll be buying by the end of this summer so its 4 month away. And I’ll probably be buying a car through Dealer Car Auction since I can have a pick out of cheaper cars.
