Good generation Civic for teenager first car?
Hey there guys.
So I am here to learn about used Civics, as I will be finding one soon for my teenage daughter.
I have never owned one, but have settled on the Civic for their reputation.
So far it seems like the 5th and 6th gen cars might be a good choice for parts availability from what I have gathered from some threads. And within those generations, what years are a good choice? Obviously I want something safe. I see the term "GSR" on some classifieds...what does this mean?
My price range will be below $4500.
I really appreciate any advice you guys can give me.
Thanks!

Shoot over some links and we can take a look for you. GSR was a trim level for Acura Integra, most commonly known for the GSR B18c1 motor. This is a popular engine swap in the 5th/6th gen Civics. If this is going to be a first car, I would suggest to look for something as stock as possible.
