I was just curious what made people choose their cars? I started researching about the dc5s as soon as i heard about it. after researching enough to make anyone sick I saved up for a descent down payment and bought one. Ever since that day I never looked back. I love my pearl white type s

 

the smell


its a great platform

 

It was Honda's newest hatch, and that K motor seems to have something going for it.

 

i traded in my crvtec ek just cause I was sick of dealing with a custom setup that needed constant tuning and was a pain in the ***, so a brand new ep3 with the k-series engine which has plent of potential made a lot of sense. i love the interior and the rally style shifting. the k-series just purrs and is so much smoother than the b-series engines were, i am kind of dreading putting in my exhaust and intake and killing the quiet, but need to free up some ponies

 

Reminded me of my teg... rip : (

 

i vtec...K20A2...Looks good

 

I didn't care about what anyone thought about the car. I needed a car that was reliable and fun to drive. I always wanted a hatchback and the unique shifter just grew on to me.

 

DC5-S.....simply purchased because its the cream of the crop in the Honda/Acura World.

 

Next to the NSX/S2000.

what he said. If you are at a stand still with a GSR, 00 Si or 03 Si. you can smoke them all. The rsx s has awesome brakes also.

 

I got my EP3 cause nobody has them. I must see like one a month.

of coarse...but thats in an entire other category...u dont see many 20 year olds with NSX's or S2000's

 

the test drive

 

i've always been an integra fan. sold my dc2 to get my dc5....should've kept it

 

sure it a lil more $$$ but hey...YOU GOTTA PAY TO PLAY

 

bcuz this time the si came back as a HATCH!

 

My 4th Civic hatch.

 

got my ep3 cuz of the first complete power assisted accessories ....in america that is. and also... nothing wrong with upgrading.. plus i got a good deal LOL

 

i got my ep because no one has one. and the k series is on its way to beat out the b series

 

cuz the car looks ohhh soo sexaayyy

 

I liked the interior of the DC5 when i first saw it when it first came out, so i bought one right away...now i have a big case of buyers remorse

 

Honestly I was waiting for my Jetta which was in the service dept. nextdoor to the Honda dealership. I took the EP3 for a test drive and decided it was perfect for me. It might not be a beauty queen or a rocket ship, but it's a lot of fun.

 

I had researched the DC5 before it came out and really liked it.I also looked at the EP3's but didn't really like them (they have really grown on me since).Test drove a Type-S as soon as they came out and a few months later got one. That was 2 years ago.I kinda wish I had waited to see the 350Z, Evo or RX8 before I got my DC5.

 

another reason why i bought my DC5 is because my boy has a 2000 Type R...and since i think realistically that 95% of Type R's get stolen...i figured why not get the next best thing...i got leather, sun roof, heated mirrors, 6spd, 0 Miles and that o so nice new car smell, and he got another headache.
