Thanks GReddy_es! Rep point +

So I went to the dealership and I am in total awe! The car is absolutely stunning and has been kept in prestine condition. Dad thinks it's good too but he wants to wait around and see if another one comes along closer to my 18th birthday :( The thing is - IT'S THE ONE I WANT! I have been looking for a white 7th Gen for ages :( and this one is in the budget! :( It's only 4 months till I am 18 and I know that Civic won't stay there that long. It's cheaper than Private Sales!

Maybe I am being a spoiled little shit but can anyone give me some ideas to push my Dad :P? HAHAHA. I just finished Year 12 and I don't think my scores are going to be outstanding; so I need to get the car NOW. HAHAHAHAHA! Ah well.

Thanks for you help all, I will keep you posted ;)

maybe u shld look online to see if there are others in the market from private owners..i would think there would be quite a handful in melb :)

Not in white and at that price :(

Manual also :(

Trust me I have checked Firesport, OzHonda, Carpoint, Carsales, Carcity and so on...

oh ok..sometimes it pays to be alil patient when it comes to this..u dun wanna regret u know :) might just be worth looking somemore..how much is it going for anyway?

It's only 13k! And I reckon I could push it down with my piss and moan negotation skills...and by saying I do not want the 3 years parts and labour warranty (They are offering it free). Although it's a good idea to have it I just want the car in my posession :(

good luck with ur negotiation then!:thumbsup:
u can do it..haha

The RS kit looks awesome! I'm not a spoiler fan myself but that's nice!

Yep, looking like nagging with Dad is on the cards. HAHA.

Thanks :)

yeah..my sentiments exactly..the car looks great with just the skirts all round..thats wad i had on my ES8..it was white as well..with the front and rear chrome strips color coded :)

tell your dad that if he buys you the civic you can drag his s13 lol... (well maybe not but ahh well haha)

i made a deal with my dad when i got my 05 7th gen (he was only going to spend 20) but i said if he buys me the civic i will boost my grades up and if not ill pay the 3500 extra ( the car was 23500) which he agreed to and bought the civic. luckily i boosted my grades and didnt have to pay the 3500 haha. just make a reasonable deal with yours and also put up the argument that:

- the car is cheap
- there are no white ones
-the car is a relatively new car which is a steal for 13k (its cheap)
- insurance is not much at all
- the car is cheap
-fuel efficiency is awesome (i got 500+ km from a 45-50$ tank when i had mine [manual])
-car is cheap
-honda reliability
-probably wont find another 7th gen for that price for a while
- get him to take it for a test drive
- offer him use of it sometimes
- the car is cheap lol

etc etc

anyways hope it goes well


greddy: your car looks hot dude

GReddy_es, have you got pics of the white one? :)

rhk, HAHAHA my dad in the S13? I don't think so. It's my sisters car now (did belong to my brother but she has bought it). She also has an Impreza. As you can see, the whole family owns an import. (Dad - Nimbus, Mum - Impreza, Other sister - Lude...) and so on. HAHAHA.

Boosted your grades? HAHA. Here I am on OzHonda when my last exam is on in an hour. I don't think thats an option! HAHA.

All your points are valid! I really need to get this.

Well I have to get going but I will be back! I'll explain the financial side of it soon. Mum has next to no negotiation skills with Dad. How I need this right now! :(

....

It's cheap! HAHAHA!

Finally found a white one with the RS bodykit :)
