Default New to Civic's from Chicago

Hi im new to honda civics and I just sold my car for 4800 and im looking at a couple cars. I want either a 99-00 civic si or ex or any car you guys think that are good (reliable, decently fast). Can you guys help me out? Also, im from chicago so the car would need to be near me.


1) 2000 HONDA CIVIC EX 109K 5-Speed! -- i can get this car for 4400
2) 2000 Honda Civic EX! -- i cant get for 4400
3) 2000 Honda Civic EX ** Just Arrived ** -- price shown
4) ┯┯➨ 2003 NISSAN SENTRA SE-R Spec V --not a honda but i kind of like it

Let me know what you guys think. I really appreciate it. I need to make the decision before thursday.

I vote number 1 as it is 5 speed. No to #2 and #3 since they are AT

That Nissan should have never been produced. All Nissan enthusiasts I work with and talk to say that is a car they should have never released. It = failboat

$4.4K isn't bad if you can verify the correct motor is in there, who did the work, and if he still has the stock parts, especially the stock wheels.

The only difference between the EX and SI is the motor, interior things (cluster, leather wrapped steering wheel etc) and insurance costs.

Regardless, if I were to pick one, I would still go with the stock white ex and go from there, especially if he can provide receipts for all the work which was recently done. You have no idea if any shortcuts were taken on the SI when the multiple engine swap were done etc etc.

That first white EX is absolutely beautiful. Get that before someone else picks it up!

Although I don't know why a 1.6L is a feature
