Civic EG

Im new to the honda scene and would like some advice on what trim to buy. Again, I am a complete noob so please be as specific as possible as to why I should pick a certain trim. (EX: Reasons such as; Engine, Options, etc.)

I dont want to buy the wrong civic

Thanks

the best of the best EG6 SiR
if you can get one that is, it came with a B16a motor, LSD, 4 disc brakes, bucket seats the full works

I agree with Jet

best in the states would be an Si. If you cant swing that try for an EX. SiR is the mackdaddy though.

Is the Si model ideal for tuning (I may sound like an idiot sorry have limited knowledge on EG6's)? And what engine does the Si have? Thanks for the last reply btw

The Si has the D16Z6 motor which is defiantly an ideal platform to build upon. The Si also has disc brakes as opposed to other trim levels, also a big plus. The only downside is actually finding a decent Si.

check this out for more info on the trim levels, and what options came in which models, etc...

Sweet! Tuning world here I come Thanks alot!

id say get a CX and just swap it. its light, its basic, and you can start learning how to mod your car.

find a clean, straight EH...HATCH and buy it. Proceed to modify from there. Motor, suspension, brakes and shit can all be changed. Start with a GREAT body.

I agree i think you should ignore what trim/spec it is and find the cleanest shell possible.

I dont know where you live but where i'm from you cant really just pick or choose trims. Hatchbacks are few and far between, get one in the best shape with the least miles.

I agree, I landed on a DX while looking for an SI. It is in outstanding condition, though, so I'm not upset lol.
