Sorry to all you die-hard celi fans but i have to get rid of my celica, an ~80whp car that looks fast around my area gets me no where.

I want to sacrifice the looks of a celica and go with an integra, or del sol. The aftermarket support for those "ricers" is amazing and fairly cheap. Not to mention they are honda which in my opinion can last longer than a yota, actually its probably equal.

So i went on the hunt and found the gsr or type r integra has a bite, my friend has a 4dr gs version (gs< gsr< type r) that doesnt look fast but his $1500 turbo eats most stock v6's and v8's at my school.

Im 17 and im on a pretty tight budget, but after selling my celi (if i even can) i think i can round up $4,000-$5,000. I know i could buy an integra or del sol with this but i dont wanna jump into things without getting opinions from people who know cars.

what would u do with 4-5k if u needed an import with some looks and substantial performance? No civics either laugh.gif lol (ug i could never steep that low)

pros and cons of integras would also be much appreciated.

Thanks!





p.s. when i bought my celi i was 15 and i knew nothing of performance or handling, just that it ran and it wasnt a pos. Please dont flame me for disliking their performance.

Yeah, I'm confused as well. You can't spend the time or money on the celi, but you can if you get a honda? Or are you trying to find one that already has a lot of someone else's time and money dumped into it?
