Default As you might of read, my 99 SI is dead..... now what....

I am gonna get money eventually, but i need to shop in the meantime, oh and in case you didnt know, it was totalled.
But my dilemna is that i loved my SI and it was everything to me, but at the same time mebbe its time for a change, i was thinking of a 99-00 hatch perfect condition, and integra gsr, or ls so i can go frankenstein style, or a 92-95 hatch if i get my motor back. I want whatever car it is to be as MINT as can be, what do you guys think i should do? whatever i do i dont think ill be leaving this forum, it has grown a part of my life and i dont think i can live without the underdog 4 cylinder. i am looking for some good input for my situation, and not just what you guys own, and my dad is pretty sick right now so i cant do anything too bad to **** off my mom and dad. yeah i know im 22 but its still not a good time....
Lemme know what you think,
Thanks Guys!

if i were you buy the car back, get a cheaper car like a hatch and buy a b20 block since you have everything for the sway and put it in your new car and sell your b16 block.With the money you get from insurance you should be able to pull that off and maybe get a nice set of wheels out of it if you are lucky.

While bother to be like everyone else. Get yourself a 4 door LX and drop it on da floor with some coilovers and get a swap.

I'd say, do whatever you'd like.

Personally, a 96-98 Black Hatch has been my dream since the day I knew what Honda was. I got a 99 Si for like 11k, and one week later sold it for like 13k, then got the hatch. That SI was messed up when i bought it (98 front, nasty exhaust, tore up interior), I thought i could fix it up (didn't reallly notice the interior though till later) but I knew it was a bad deal. 2 weeks later, I find the most stock, and perfect condition 97 DX Hatch.

Sorry to hear about your car. I know what you mean about the love of the Si. I also own a '99 Si and feel the same way about the car. I agree with the other folks, Get a '96 up hatch and do a swap. I know I would much rather have a hatch than a coupe.
