Sold The OZ Rally and Got This

After five years, I finally paid off my 2003 oz rally lancer. It was a fun car but it was time to hop into something new. I sold it for 10,000 with 55k on the clock.

I test drove a lot of cars in the low $20,000 range and to my surprise I liked the civic SI the best out of all of them (gti,Spec-v,wrx,mini,speed3,lancer gts).

I only did a couple minor modifications to the car, and plan to keep it simple.

This forum was awesome and just want to say thanks to everyone who has ever helped me out.























BTW- It feels SO GOOD to drive a car that is no longer yellow lol.

Thank you fellas I found this forum called 8thcivic.com and they also have a ton of info like clubrsx.

I agree that the four door looks better. I regret not getting the SI in a sedan but maybe I would feel the same away about the coupe if I really did get the 4-door. I'm happy with my color choice though. I originally wanted a white evo but could not afford the one I wanted so this was my second choice.

It's a TBE and a reflash.
