New member, first Civic.
Hi all, I am 23 and this is my first Honda Civic and also the nicest car I've owned up to date. I got this car for 7,000 USD, its a 2001 EX Coupe with 69,000 miles, it has a manual transmission with tinted windows and its a rally red color. The car has a sunroof, power doors, windows and ice cold A/C. It came with the factory CD player but I am replacing that with a Kenwood CD player/HD Radio with a USB in the front. The car didn't come with alloy wheels and I plan on buying a set eventually, I also plan on doing some body work to it, perhaps adding a lip kit or a body kit in the future.
According to Carfax it has a clean history and no alerts of any kind, its a one owner car (I am the second now) and it was driven around 12,000 miles a year. However it seems like the back quarter panel isnt the original, I see some spray paint marks on the trunk and there is a small leak where the panels and the frame meet (inside the trunk) which I am going to fix with some silicone within the next few days. Other than that the car has no rust and runs beautifully. It has a vtec engine and I plan on adding an after market air intake eventually.
I think I got a decent deal on it and I hope that it lasts me without me having to put too much money into it.

RE: New member, first Civic.
Change filters, plugs, belts, fluids, and worn or damaged parts before modifying your car. Last longer. First increase car handling feature (non specific).Next motor . Finally interior.Etc. These are only recommendations.
Are you using your car for every day driving?
