It's got more of that old folks look about it, it is the 4 door 97', not the 3 door.
I prefer the really old civic's.
If I were to buy a civic it would either be the Civic EF or the Civic Shuttle thing and do it up like the Bisimoto one.
+1 I had one for like a month but then I sold it cuz I found out the frame was bent. It was quick though with a B18. Plus it was too 4x4 status for my likings.

wow.so far the only import company i trust right now is toyota. my buddies B18 LS/turbo blew up 2 weeks after building it (320fwhp @11PSI).
and a buddy has gone threw 2 nissan KA24DE/T's, 3 SR20det's and 4 VH45de's
i love nissan to death (im a chevy/nissan guy) but right now i want either a LSX or a 3UZ-fe 6.2L toundra notor lol

SR20DET is not a good motor if you want reliability
This season, my friend blew 3 engines and 2 tranny's and the third engine was after one day.

Yes it is, it just depends on how you use it. You'd have to do some work if you're using it for drifting/racing, but for a daily it's pretty reliable.

Even for daily... lots of people I know had problems with their SR20, gti-r, bluebird, red-top.
and after all that I have one with 263 000 kilometers, LOL.
