Let's see..... I've had a daily driven LS/VTEC CRX, daily driven turbo B20 hatchback, and now a daily driven H22 hatchback. All are totally daily drivable. The only thing is that the LS/VTEC motor better be built right or you're gonna regret it later down the road. The turbo B20 setup and H22 setup can be relatively expensive, but well worth it for the power. As for either not be good for daily driving, I've been there, driven it.... it's perfectly alright with no problems.
