What Civic Year?

[CivicSi04']

another thing to think about is where u live. if ur on the west coast then shit get a 93 coupe, but if ur on the east coast. then i would go newer due to the salty winters. esp in nj. where u can literally taste the salt, well not really but they dump it everywhere.

yea I dont know what region you are from but i suggest getting a car from a dry climate... all of the 5th gen hondas (civics) that came out of the Ohio Plant have always had severe rust problems.

any of the cars that came out of the other plants didnt for some reason. try getting a car from

everything under that line.

I live in South Carolina, PERFECT weather.... just sometimes it rains to much (now dont get my wrong, we never really ever have any floods or anything), like we have had like an hour of rain every day for a week.. and then its bright and sunny out after that.. I always say "Greenville *the city which I live in* has bipolor weather.

Ya, im sorta like'en the '92-'95 model right now... now which year is the best for that car?

im a gig fan of 6th gen hatches and coupes. but my next fav is a 5th gen hatchie. just shop around look for a good buy remember there is tons of civics out their...

it really wont matter what year u pick, thier all gonna be pretty much the same if not exact. i would just go with what is newest for that gen. cuz i would rather have a car that is a 95' that a car that is a 92' thats three less years that something could have happened to the car

id go with 96+....i run a 95' and i like it but i have no power windows, no power locks, no power mirrors, no power anything really....

also how soon do you need the car and how fast can you save up the extra $ for a 6th gen (which would be my choice)? If you need the car right away and it'll take some time to save another 2-3k for a 6th gen, then go for a 5th gen. if not, i'd save up.

I don't see how that way of thinking means anything.You make it sound like if it is 96 or newer power options are availiable.
But the fact is if you didn't run a Dx you could have all or some of the power options if you had an Lx,Ex or Si.

Well ideally yes,but depending on how much you have to spend,what you plan on doing with the car,and if you want the options with it or not.If they are not important to you then go with the lower model.Me personally,i could care less about PS,AC,CC,PW...they are nice ,but for me not necessary.
