Meford.. unfortunetly your assuming far too much about this car for me to even somewhat side with your argument of this being a horrible daily driver that will cost you alot of money. Way too many assumptions about this car and civics throughout the whole thread.

Like puppet said itll be no more different then any other car. This car is done for you... treat it right and itll last juuuust fine.

But if you want to look at economics its simple. For 4 grand more your son could have had a toy that was A LOT more fun. no? ;)

Uh, no

I never brought the civic hate into the equation. You did.
You and Jay amoung others automatically assume that I, in particular, hate the civic. That's not true.
My son bought a Focus because the parents that he resides in work for Ford. And his step grandfather worked at Ford. As did his step great grandfather and his step great great grandfather. So you tell me if I should be driving a civic or any member of my family?
Not on your life.

If you needed a fire protection system in your house, would you shop for one outside of your father's business? I think not.

But this isn't about the civic in general. To me it's about spending $20k on a car that is a '92. If you don't understand that part of the argument then my point is lost.
