$18,370 - $23,320
I would have sold you my 2005 GLi, 25000kms, Honda Bodykit, Tein springs, 17" Chromes, Dark tint, color coded dash parts and interior door handles (genuine Honda stuff), Genuine floor mats and Stainless "civic" door sills. Absolutely immaculate condition a couple of grand more than you paid. Good choice of car though mate!
But it doesn't have cruise.
Was the one you bought Auto or Man??? What color? I love the face lifted 7th Gens!
hi yes i like the hondas always been a fan but i must confess, but please dont laugh now, because i am coming from a 1988 Mitsubishi sedan, which i have had for 10 years now and a very trouble free car, so i am hoping this civic will give me trouble free motoring.
the civic i got is ruby red, automatic, with cruise fitted as extra, i have cruise in my old magna and i can't do without it on the highways.
p.s i am not a die hard hobbist or motorhead, like all of you so all the extra jazz you are talking about wouldnt interest me, sorry.
its a very good car in the troube free department, but if u ever want to make it faster u bought the wrong car mate.
even tho i have the same car i bought it for show not speed.
well like i said, i am not a motorhead or motorcar hobbyist, i brought it because its a honda, which means quality and reliability i suppose, i just want a nice car to take me from A to B with a little luxuries and i am a very conservative driver so definately not looking for speed,
but i must say the acceleration on this was amazingly good compared to my stuttering 20 yr old magna, lol
p.s however the brakes felt abit cushiony - whats with that?
Post some pics, dude, we wanna see your new ride.
Your brakes need a little bleed to remove air bubbles.Quote:

Dont always trust the prices of an insurance company.
