Default Civic Daily Drivers?

I was just wondering, how many people here use their Civics as daily drivers? It's a nice fun vehicle to play around with, but it's not exactly the most refined vehicle out there, especially once you start building them.

I can't afford anything else.

Among sport compacts, I'd take a Honda over any other brand. Definitely has the highest quality IMHO.

I have two. My 99 SI is for tweaking. My 94 DX for going places where an SI would get stolen. Sometimes it feels like that's most places...

Refined? Of course not. They're civics!

College tuition: $16,000/yr
Rent: $500/mo
Utilities, foodstuffs, etc.: $200/mo
Being able to drive 330+ miles home every now and then with one tank of gas: PRICELESS (actual costs are about $17.00 :D)

As a poor college student...
I my Honda
