The hunt continues...

So, as most of you know, I've finally gotten rid of my previous car (1990 Integra GS). Now I'm looking for something new, are there any certain cars that people can suggest to me? Cars that you've driven, enjoyed and were reliable, hopefully something affordable as well.

if you wanna stay in the honda / acura deal then go for a honda crx. light, fast, highly moddable, very fun to drive.

Yea, sounds to me like a honda/acura would be the type of car for you. Just look around and see what catches your eye thats the best thing to do.

go for a new teg (dc4) one of the higher modles would be great. my car has treated me well since buying, its a comfortable ride, and some what spacious.

Major bummer of an integra is the $110 fee to plate it per month.
Plus premium in the GSR, that makes a very costly daily driver.

Only costs me like $40 to fill up with premium, plates own my ass though.

Oops double post

why does everyone rag on the hondas so much i mean for us budget minded tuners, the ones who love cars and want a unique special car but arent finacially able to purchase that G35 or BMW M3, hondas are great cheap parts, realiable everything you could ask in a weekend car enthusiast iono just my two cents

honda/acura make great cars.. reliable, afforable, cheap on gas, easy to find parts..

its like me saying i hate VW's because i dont like em..

lol i agree with youbut i respect anyone whos put time and effort into there car even if i dont like it

well im not saying i dont like VW's im just making a point that if YOU dont like a "brand" of cars, so be it, but you dont need to beak people for having that brand of car you hate. Everyone has different tastes.

The funny thing is...if I went for it, I could probably come up to Lethbridge with you to pick it up, I can afford it now cause of my tax return. Got +$507.82 in my bank account now!

I was not trying to beak honda/acura in anyway, I never said they were bad cars or anything of the sort, I can respect that you want a cheap car thats easy to modify, I just think some people should look at more options and be a little more open to other makes and models of cars. When I was looking to buy a car I looked at honda's, talons, mustangs and many others...I even had a 240sx before getting my Jetta. I think that theres so many cars out there that it's dumb to set your mind on one make.

And for the record I never said I didn't like hondas.acuras.

O i agree totally im just saying like i had a BMW loved it to death but it comes to a point where i want a cool car but dont wanna be paying the bills, like Parts for those german cars are really frickin expensive so i just kinda talk up hondas a such cause they a little more practical if you want soemthing to modify for cheap.

Also i never said i didnt live VWs i mean may not be my top brand but they have some frickin sweet cars im a fan of the old ones for sure those circle headlights are Sexxy

I guess i just get defensive cause everytime i mention wat i drive the usual response is "o you drive a honda, why wouldnt you buy something good"

Everyone is partial to what they own and drive

Let's get this back on topic though

How much you lookin to spend i can give you the place in the states that gets some sick cars for cheap

Just buy a red integra with no front or rear windsheild and save yourself a bunch on AC in the summer time.

lol, ive heard somewhere that driving with your windows down (or no windows at all) will actually decrease your fuel economy as much or more than using the a/c. I love my a/c, but i can live without it. I drove a black supra with red leather interior last year with no a/c, it was that bad
