what do you think is a better buy, i found two cars im interested in getting i have about 5500 dollars right now for a car and some mild mods i can get a 94 civic ex 4 door with like 80k on itfor 4000 or a 97 civic cx hatch with 100k for 3500, which so you think is the better buy?

 

hatch

 

wow this disappeared quick, thats for the input tho, my concern is i cant get an engine swap for a while, and the engine is a non vtec one so idk what to do

 

go with the hatch, in the long run you wont regret it. VTEC doesnt really make the car much better. its just a matter of a few horse power.

 

hatch

 

insurance will be less with the 4 door

but please get the hatch

i pay less for my hatch than i do for my sedan. both 5th gens.

 

really ? why ?
diffrent years right ?

hatch is older ?

 

I wouldnt say just a few horsepower... depends on who you talk to...

But I will second the HB though. Get the HB and feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel the slowness of a cx motor and when you swap it will be like night and day! You'll appreciate it!

i would get the hatch, seems like a good deal!

 

The CX would be just as cheap as the 4 door. CX is base model, no power steering, no tach, a few other things like lower horsepower. To the insurance company it is a pretty basic affordable economic car.
Personnaly my brothers eg hatch is cheaper than my si(canadian yes) coupe of the same year.

 

seems too good a deal on the hatch to be true. if its in great shape, get the hatch. I mean, the 5th gen sedan is hideous and boring as **** looking. the CX is better, and has serious potential. Plus its OBD-II, easier to work on in my opinion, more ready for higher level upgrading, better car i think. hey, its your money, but my vote is the hatch.

 

performance = Hatch

Comfortable/clean ride = 4 door

 

yeah i think im leaning towards the hatch and i'd have enough for a b18b almost immediately but im gonna wait for the c

 

hatch it up , i was looking for the hatch, but i found my 2nd sedan for 700 on h-t (vouch for jsw1gga) and its great, but i still wish i had a hatch.
d series turbo it up!!!!! with the money u buy the b18 for u can have a newer d series motor and turbo kit. but thats my opinion

 

i was not able to get a hatch, so do it for me

 

would you rather look like a mom dropping off ur kids to school or mr. speed racing in the hatch ;D

 

get the hatch!

 

ive gotta 5G sedan for sale

 

ht opinions will pwn j00~! But I agree, go with the hatch

 

HATCH= all the girls
