OK so, I really want an EK hatch, but I can't afford or find one.

So the next best thing is an EG, which is still great. Why the EG? OBD1, errthing swaps in, light, looks. (not in that particular order)

I really want: Moonroof(especially the ones on Si/EX models aka flip and slide), VTEC(even sohc, I want to sohc-t and get a turbo kit, like the greddy or edelbrock)
power windows and locks is nice too. AC and PS is nice(can't get it on all the hatches), rear discs(for simplicities sake and looks) and ABS(I don't know if it's standard on EX coupes)


So, my question is should I go w/ a hatch or EX coupe. Hatches are pretty rare in my neck of the woods, especially unrusted ones. And w/ a hatch, I love the looks and cargo(even though I never carry much, it's nice to know you have in case), and the weight is nice, but I lose out on creature comforts which I like also.

IF I get a hatch I rather it be Si or VX for the vtec. Put w/ all hatches (except Si) I"ll eventually want to go rear disc. Plus I really want a moonroof it's cool. I can't find an Si hatch, which would be a no brainer and I wouldn't be asking for help.

Should I just go w/ an EX coupe?

 

Get the EX coupe. You won't regret it! Better yet, buy mine!

Honestly though, if you're thinking about selling it in the long run, I'd go with the EK just because the value of the car might be higher compared to an older EX, even though it has more options.

If you really don't care, I'd get the EX coupe. It's an overall, better car for us enthusiasts (sp?)... I dunno..

 

yeah, I don't know. EK for sure if I had the money. I've even been looking into DSMs, but I'm scared of the reliability issues w/ those *****

 

Run away from DSM's.. Money pit man..

 

yeah, my bro bought a 90 for 2500, now been rebuilding head, then the bitch never idled properly and then, the tranny went. He's fixing that now. that's like 4000 already. I'm gonna stay w/ Hondas.

bump anyone else. Pros and Cons

 

get the hatch, it's not the hardest to find for no reason.

 

i agree, get the hatch, the Si hatch if possible. they're a rare breed, but if you keep looking, one will eventually come up.

The Si seems to be exactly what you want: SOHC VTEC, sunroof, rear disc brakes, and aesthetic appeal. Just be prepared to pay out for one.

 

if you can't find the Si HB, get the EJ1 [EX coupe]

 

i'd say go for the coupe everone and theri mom has a hatch. it's not like coupes are rare or anything but you get what i'm saying.so unless you find a clean si hatch which i doubt go for the ex coupe,ps,sohc vtec,sunroof,pw,nice door panels with tweeter housing.just dont get tan interior cus its ******* wack

 

OH yeah the tweeter housing.

I'll try to find the Si hatch for sure. but if nothing comes up. It's the EX

 

the tweeters only came n 94s and 95s. i wuld get a coupe, like mine. i dont like hatches, they look like eggs

 

hey thanks for the heads up 93ejay1, I didn't know it was 94-95
