Leon take me on another drive in the Genesis! I feel like it's something to be looked into since it's a 2.0T, that's what I would get.

Just go to Doug's in Lynnwood, they were pretty nice about it. Talk to Briana, the sales lady. She was pretty nice, didn't try to push you to buy something and was pretty welcoming to people who just want to try out the cars. They didn't have much in stock when I went, so I drove a 3.8 base model in 6 speed. I wanted to try the 2.0T. I feel like the 2.0T will probably feel kind of slow compared to the 8. The 3.8 had just the right amount.

Yeah, but the 2.0 seems like it will have a lot more room for customization.

I test drove a R3 this weekend. It was really nice. But I only had one problem! No more amber on the dash lights!!!! I was like...wtf!?!?! lol.

Eitherway, i dont know man. Here is my p.o.v.

Ive owned 32 cars in my short 23 yrs. mostly from 15 to 23. Starting with a CYM rx-7 fd 93.

Ive had from type r integras usdm, 4 fd's, (3 running) 6 fcs (4 running), 2 fb's, (both running), 5 s13's, 1 s14, evos, s2ks 2, rx8, civic si 2000, integras ls 2, and a coupel of passenger cars.

I regret losing a lot of them. The collectors value especially. Now, ive decided never to get rid of a collectors style car again, my wifes lighting yellow rx8 (04 only), my laguna blue ap1 first MY. I know times may be hard, but i rather buy a pos and keep my car. I love my rigs. I mean, if you add up all the moneys ive lost in trading and selling my cars i well be in the 100000 dollar mark.

1. buy civic now.

2. get FD later


OR

buy a shitty civic now that you can drive and fix it up ... you can go crazy with economod and get INSANE mpg: http://www.d-series.org/forums/force...g-64-8mpg.html

go OBD1 for easier emissions compliance if you go for the d15b 3 stage motor
