I'm a new member and a Honda owner since 1999 until probably forever. I have a 2000 Civic Si, a 2004 Crv EX and recently purchased 2014 Accord Sport. My first car was a new Dodge Neon and it fell apart after 5 years. My roommate at the time owned and raced an Acura Type R and thankfully he made me test drive an Si. I was hooked, even though I don't race. My Civic is fun to drive and it's been extremely reliable. I have an independent Honda mechanic who has been awesome and reasonably priced and much better than any of the stealerships around here.
