well guys the time has come and I must find myself another vehicle.
I'm at a bit of a crossroads here though and I can not decide what my next car should be. I've driven the same 2006 Civic Si for 10 years (original owner)
Right now I haven't made up my mind on any specifics, except sporty but with a ~10k budget in mind (for private sale or as a down payment)
Any suggestions?
TLDR: I wrecked my civic, suggest what I should fuck up next
miata faggot

accord coupe
After 10 years you don't want to upgrade?
>>15108526
Upgrade, as in? Something RWD?
Sure, but it's not a huge deal to me.
Fast? I had the civic tuned out pretty well, full bolt ons and a fat cam so it had plenty of get up and go to satisfy.
I guess if you drive a civic long enough you become a boring person though.
>>15108289
My '11 Si was killed the same way.
>>15108289
>>15108649
>mfw i looked for another 8th gen si in my area and almost all of them are salvage titles from side impact
>>15108289
2016 Civic
>>15108722
I would of gotten another one around here, but they're all 100K+ miles on them. Not sure if they were salvage though. The price they were wanting, I don't think they were.
>>15108739
New Si model doesn't come out until 2017 tho and then of course the Type R in 2017
>>15108624
>DOHC
>a cam
k
>>15108791

>>15108809
>>15108850
and yet still not fast enough to get through an intersection
>>15108781
Wait a year then
>>15108289
How much do you make a month?
>>15108881
right now only about 1200-1500 but in August it's looking to double
>>15108899
Why would it double? You should aim for 200-250 a month.
>>15108855
SAVAGE
>>15108899
new job, double the pay
>>15108289
Fiata, it's even cheaper than the ND
S2000
>>15108971
You shouldn't count on that job. It might be there now but there's always a chance it disappears and you're stuck with a high payment.
>>15108809
Was it the tsx swap m8? Worth it? Did u need a toon?
>>15111226
Oh of course. But with most likely 10k down payment and perfect credit I imagine I'll be able to handle the sub-250/month payment even if it falls through and I'm stuck where I'm at now.
>>15111206
>get something older and slower
Nty
>>15111404
Nah I threw in some skunk2's. Pretty nice stuff, the stage 2s really rip
>>15108289
Cleanest prelude you can find
>>15111708
Hahaha the s2k is literally better than the civic in every way shape and form including speed.
What the fuck are you expecting for 10k? Seriously? Buy a 350z or Camaro LS1 you won't find anything faster in that segment unless heavily modified.
As far as downpayment goes maybe a g37s/370z, or a mustang GT
>>15108826
>god i wish I was shopping or cheating on my husband right now.
engine looks like it's probably still good. Take it out and swap it into a miata or a gutted eg
>>15111910
It's going into my buddy's 98 civic so there is that
After my SI I upgraded to a hen 2 MAZDASPEED 3. Logical progression. More power still fwd still good on gas but sporty. Plus day hatch to haul stuff. Should be just a little over your 10k budget but it would be a 60-70% down payment pic was my SI
>>15108289
I wish this happened to me, I fucking hate my Civic.
>>15112113
Why don't you get it equinox'd then?
If you think for a moment that the S2000 is slower, you don't deserve one. I went from an 06 Civic Si (had it for 7 years, also since new) to an 02 S2000, then added a 15 STI and eventually sold both for a 13 911.
Incrementally faster (stock for stock) each time.
>>15112782
Thats wicked funny, I lost my 09 impreza hatch to an equinox tbone
>36 replies in and not one person has asked
>>15108289
howd it happen faggot
>>15108289
I feel you, I wrecked my vette last month :/. Sorry about your loss, least you can try to be positive and get a newer car!
RIP ):
>>15108973
Wait for fiat depreciation and it will be cheaper than a NC
>>15108945
>>15108855
>>15108791
>>15108973
Just figured I'd point out some of the retards we have with us today.
MazdaSpeed3.
Gives you more power and space than before.
>>15113483
>be at intersection
>go to take left turn on arrow
>suddenly soccer mom in a Nissan versa outta no where
>she's going about 50-60, looking down at her phone
And I'm sure you know the rest
>>15112109
>>15113738
What about Focus ST? I'm not a big fan of the MS3 but I've also never really worked with them much
>>15112113
Maybe if you wish hard enough the gods will grant you mighty tree smashing powers
>>15112800
>don't deserve one
To be frank that doesn't bother me. I really am not impressed with the s2000 and I actually have been in and driven a few.
>>15113892
We're you injured? Did she fucking die?
Because she deserved it. Another Si dead :c
>>15113921
She got BTFO by her airbag since she slammed into me head first. From what I saw she had some burns and cuts. Her shit got totaled too, engine basically got crammed into the cabin
My left knee got fucked because I clutched in before impact but should be repairable
>>15113943
I was your reply just had to turn my trip on.
Jesus Christ dude. Her car got fucked. Women drivers I swear glad your okay though. Did you get out and yell at her when it happened? I low key probably would have screamed at her
>>15113943
probably some Plano mom, considering your just in Frisco. Fuck the suburban mom's here. Most are from fucking Cali and think they rule here now.
>>15113965
Well I got sorta trapped in my car, had to climb out of the sun roof since obviously the passenger door is a no go but the frame got bent enough the driver door wouldn't open either. By the time I climbed out she was sitting on the curb still playing with her damn phone like nothing happened
>>15113974
You have no idea man. She was literally the epitome of California soccer mom gone "Texan" burb mommie
>>15111708
Older. Faster. Better.
I really doubt that fg2 was modded to a point to even be on par with a stock s2k.
