That is it, not a great car list but something I have to decide on by the end of this week.

98-01 Integra LS  
PRO: Upgradeable, easy to fix (old tech, known), fun  
CON: Rusts, unsafe, old design, loud

98-01 Accord Coupe LX  
PRO: Quiet, bigger, softer, safe  
CON: Bad MPG, slow, boooring

01 Honda Civic coupe LX  
PRO: Good MPG, very safe, newest  
CON: Costly to fix, girly,

PS: I have $5500 to spend, and what I am looking for is a daily to get to and from school. It will be used during the winter so no RWD and I want to get good fuel economy so no AWD. Nothing older than 98 and has to have around 100Kmi. So tell me what are my other options.  
Thank you

what about a 98 impreza or something, you could prolly get 30mpg out of the 2.2L pretty easily, and have AWD
