buying a new car

[k2nix]

Go with the civic. If you have to get a second job to pay for your car...that's bad. What if you lose one job? I mean it can happen to anyone - the store could close or your boss could get fired and the new guy could fire you...

Anyway go with the one you know you can make the payments on. You dont wanna end up in such bad straits that your car is repo'd and then you can't find a new job 'cause you can't drive to it.

I wanted luxury car but that's out of my budget so I'm considering new civic si. I'm a full time student and I do'nt want to work more than 20hr+ trying to pay a car payment. thanks for your comment, about time someone makes good comment that really helps. I'm sure Mazda3 is a nice car but I'm more into reliable, good price, comfortable car. Mazda3speed looks like for someone who wants speed and performance. And it is pretty expensive for brand new one so I'll def pass on that

Actually I wasn't referring to the Speed3...the normal 3 with the NA 2.3L 4cyl can do 0-60mph in the low 7 secs depending on transmission...the Speed3 can do it in 5.9 secs...but yeah if the 3 is a no then deff go with the civic...but I don't see how u can say that the 3 isn't a luxury car but u think a civic is?...they don't even offer leather seats do they?

they offer leather AND navi. on civics
only offer navi on SI's (most honda dealerships here in GA have some kind of partnership with katzskins (sp?) to do custom leathering)

FYI the MS3 is only a little more expensive than the SI. I think there's someone on here selling it for a pretty good price.

Yeah well MS3's start at $22,975 and that's for a brand new 08'!!!

yea...i would have definitely consider the MS3 if it came in sedan form, but the hatch form just looks horrible to me
