I don't trust Mitsubishi.

I won't bother since I won't read the rules and they won't accommodate.

I'd get the civic. Insurance is probably cheaper on the civic. But if you're getting bored of it. why bother considering it? maybe try the accord?

What about the cobalt SS, it's supposed to be a blast to drive. Or a Mazdaspeed3. If you wanted an EVO, don't settle for a Lancer. And don't settle for a civic either..

Lancer or Lancer EVO? Cuz those two cars are completely different lol. Anyway if you're talkin about a civic and a regular lancer, Civic hands down in terms of handling, gas mileage, reliability, and interior/exterior design. The only thing the lancer has over the civic (DX,LX,EX) is power. Originally when I was car shopping I had the same mindset as you.. Been driving a civic forever, time for a change. But after checking out the Scion TC, Mazda3, Lancer, and the Civic.. I just couldnt help but choose the civic (It came down to the civic and TC)

True, Honestly..I'm not a huge fan of mustang myself but I want something unique car around ktown haha.
Well I guess it's not unique but it's not common as Civic here in ktown or anywhere else.
I still don't knowww. but since you said lancer isn't that great of a car..ahhh haha.
its confusing =(.
my sister just had to get the civic =( haha.

coreansurfer it depends if the OP is car savvy enough to keep those cars in check and in maintenance. Those cars are like a hot girl.. high maintenance. but honestly, if you are in question, just go to different dealerships and start test driving. I mean you'll be spending thousands upon thousands on a new car, so i would imagine you'd want to know how they drive yah? Looks is one thing but you gotta keep in mind the other aspects of the car as well.

I agree, AS much as looks are great for show, aspects of the car is very important.
You don't want any of those cars to break down on you.
Honestly I don't like uncomfy looking cars. Mustang..I heard there's really nothing to fix up.
Civic, if you fix it up pretty well its pretty good. Especially if I get a SI but its out of my choice
and manual isn't something i want.

Maybe I can just get a civic and make it look like SI. LOL

If you did that put on your flame suit lol. I heard of that topic rising up numerous times and most ppl would say "Why not just get an SI" or "quit posing" etc. But I mean, you could always get a regular civic and get the HFP body kit and lower it and it'll look clean. Not everyone is into the car scene for performance. Some are all show no go some are all go no show. I have no prob with any of that cuz in the end its your ride. Sooo with that said... if you get a civic, be sure to join the 8th forums and meet hella chill and cool ppl (:
