    yup, due to some old and new knowledge about my particular z, i was motivated to sell her. and sell her i did. put a post on autotrader on friday night and sold it sunday afternoon. i'm sorry to see the z go, but i really couldn't afford to rebuild the turbos, plus i found out the previous owner really abused the car, which i had a hunch. now my question..what should i get to replace it? i'm leaning towards a 97-01 prelude or a 97-01 GSR. any thoughts? no, i'm not buying that silver CRX. i need something w/ low miles that i can keep for a long time.

    I would have to agree with eric and say get another rex or 4th gen. But if you really are set on one of the newer cars get the gsr. More parts are available for it. smile

    Whats your price range? Maybe you should go for a RSX or a new Civic Si? A GSR Integra would be cool.

    i've been kicking around the idea of a NEW car..i've got a pretty good downpayment, thanks to the sale of the z, and money is definately better than a trade in. i've read a few articles on the new Si, but i can't get over the fact that it's just not as pleasing to the eye as the last coupe or even 5 and 6th gen hatches. i just don't like the styling and lack of hp. i want to test drive a spec v..they're pretty cheap and fun from what i hear..i saw a teg RS today, and i really like the tegs..maybe a GSR would be fun smile. anyone driven a prelude? i really can't see myself spending over 18k on a new car. (dammit, i don't make enough bank). so that rules out the rsx type s. i wish i knew for sure about the civic R coming here..i'd wait if it was. more input?

    Hey why don't you get an older Type R? I see them alot around here (Dallas) with really low mileage for ~10K. And most of the time it's owned by an older man, so they're usually not beat on smile How much do you have to work with?
