Hey everybody. Just bought a 2001 Civic LX, 114,000 miles, perfect condition. I got into a wreck and totaled my Hyundai, and i can instantly feel a quality difference. ( i went to the dealer to look at a used Accent but found this civic instead after i was disappointed.) I look forward to being apart of the Honda community and any advice in immediate upgrades.

 

Do you mind me asking how much you paid for it? And manual/automatic coupe/sedan? Anyway... yeah quality difference is HUGE

 

4800 (3500 down, 200 a month), coupe, 4 speed auto, 1.7 4 cy. Ive only driven hondas scarcely before, my best friends '89 civic in high school, and my dads '03 accord.

 

welcome to the forum!

advice on immediate upgrades? perhaps a motor swap? the 2001 is known to have horrid transmission issues. I'd look into swapping in a K-series engine and transmission, but thats just me.
