Default Accord or Civic ?!?!

BOTH ARE COUPES...
im 16, my uncle is going to an auction this week. I have to get a car, and it must be a honda. (its all they have)...
i was thinking iether the accord coupe 98 + or a prelude, but the insurance is too high... and then i looked at the 2002 civic. I must admit, the coupe looks really good. BOTH ARE MANUAL TRANSMISSION
so.... its iether a civic, stick 01...............or a 98 accord stick
mileage will range between the price of about 7-10,000 $...

what do you guys think?
in the future, i will eventually add these mods...
17" gunmtal rims
intake, headers, and a very low sounding exaust

dont waste you money on those low performance mod, stick around and read to get a better understading on how to make a faster honda.


6th gen coupe is more luxury/comforty, power everything but a overweighted chassis would be you enemy

em2 7th gen civic is nice for a teenager, civic is very easy to work on and replacement/repair parts are cheaper, but there's no much fast 7th gen tho'

If you can get the 'lude, it would be the best buy. It already has the h22 engine, better suspension, and all disc brakes. Aftermarket support for the prelude(performance-wise) is leagues better than the Accord. Get the Accord only if you need 4 doors.

If you're strapped for cash, go for the civic. Just remember, you will have to do much more than install 17" rims, header and intake to get it to run like the Accord, much less a Prelude.
