thank you so much. since the dx didn't come with the cd/cassette player, it came with the adapter kit from the factory...this means i don't have to buy anything else other than the harness right?

it's not the money, i have the money to buy the SI outright with cash but didn't.

it's a civic. meant for cheap & reliable transportation. I don't want to pay extras for the upper models for features/extras that i will not used or throw out (stock audio system, a/c, 16" rims, etc.) if i want a sport car, i'd rather buy a 2nd car such as a supra or 300z turbo and work on it. if i want a luxury car, i was going to buy a 2000/2001 bmw 3 series for the same price. But i want a new car that i know it's going to be a great daily driver and cheap.

type X has a point man.... seems that you are taking your "daily driver" and making it into your "luxury/sports" car by putting all this stuff into it....

the aftermarket deck isnt a big deal.... alot of people do it... trust me i do it for a living... but all this other **** your gonna put into it when you could have just bought an Si or something else from jump. Its your car man do what you want... im just giving you my 2.. not flaming you or dissing you. but it all just doesnt make much sense to me...

Ok, what I dont get is if you had all that money to buy the SI straight up with CASH.. how come you had to finance your DX?

Don't be ashamed to just admit that you cannot afford an SI, at least you have a brand new car... Most people cannot even afford a used car... Be proud of your DX..

well obviously you're too stupid to realized that my money make me money with an average of over 12% a year vs. 5.44% interest rate that i'm financing my civic for.

One of my investment account made me $1400 last month.....how stupid is it to take all of the money and pay for the car outright with cash when it can sit there and make at minimum 10%??????

12% money earning interest &gt; 5.44% financing the civic. ******* moron.



Also, having over $20k in highly liquidable savings account + $35k in mutual funds &gt; your retarded **** for brain with no money who think paying off a car with cash is the brightest idea you ever came up with.

i'm done talking to you 16 years old high school retarded kids. either that or you're a ******* dumbass that have the brain of a 16 year old.

- hell what am i expecting coming from you idiots with **** like "oh he's adding a cd player to his car, he's a ******* retarded trying to make his car a luxury/sports car"....yea a ******* cd player is serious performance upgrades.

- "if you have so much money, blah blah blah, should of buy the si outright with cash", yea.... once you goes past high school, there's something called investing. for now, just shut your *** dumpster.

did i get it through your thick head yet moron?

How are you gonna sit there and call someone names when your a$$ is illiterate. Yeah some of the people on here might still be in high school, but they know proper punctuation and grammar. You have to be a foreigner saying stuff like "well obviously you're too stupid to realized that my money make me money with an average of over 12% a year vs. 5.44% interest rate that i'm financing my civic for"... i mean cmon bro there is this new thing called spellcheck, try it out. Noone is clowning you for putting a radio in your car, hell im putting a Pioneer Avic-Z1 navi unit when it comes out, but now you're callin everyone names and being blatantly disrespectful, i hope you get banned. Everyone of your posts turn into something like this. When you start a post, be prepared to take positive and negative criticism.

jesus. you ricers are seriously thinking that by adding a cd player into a car that doesn't have one = turning it into a luxury car.

and by adding a turbo 5 years from now hoping to get 170-200 hp = ferrari killing monster?</TD></TR></TABLE>


adding a turbo and inquiring about it 5 years prior? wheres the logic

AND

in 5 years you'll have a car with some decently racked up miles


so heres my equation

DX + 5 years of Usage + Boost = BOOM
