get the 00 civic si man. i have one and it purrs with untainted power. I recommend an upgrade on the clutch if u want a litle more kick but even stock it picks up. Go look up reviews on the car and youll see that everyone agrees, the si is just an all around fun car to drive. Handling is awsome, acceleration lacking a little at times but still u can grasp the great sport feeling. Speaker set up is perfect for allround sound and the A/C will put frostbite on your lip! Dosent take too long to get warmed up in there either. Good luck with it man! Try Black.

Im not trying to dog on anyones car but the 99si B16is loud and not that fast stockwhen compared to a b18c...if you can find a hatch or a coupe with a gsr swap you will be happier in the long run...i have had both and the torque from that displacement difference is signifigant...the 99si is still a great car with a lot of potential...the si will also be more reliable cause the motor is stock but if your not afraid of a doing light matinence yourself id look for something with a b18c

Si FTW! im thinking of completely converting my 99ex to a 99 si. I love Si's but was too scared to buy a used one because they have potential and are made to be upgraded, and i dont know what the previous owners have done
