I love civics alot. And i wrecked my 6th gen back in 2001. So i just got another 6th gen only a sedan this time due to being a parent. My wife say's its 13 years old and im wasting my time and money. So know i kinda believe her. I mean am i really the only person out there that loves 6th gens that much? I see a ton of crx's all over they are even older i like them too. I dunno maybe its because i havent driven in 9 years. My question is am i the only one doing work on that old of a car ? should i stop and get a new car or just have fun with this one?

Does it matter what anyone thinks? Get what you like. Personally, 6th gens are my favorite models civics.

I love my 13 year old Civic. It's just nice to know I could diagnose and fix just about any problem it comes up with, though body work is something I'd like to learn to do.

same here, I love my 6th gen.

This thread reminds me of my bro. His first car at 18 was a 92 Accord Lx which was sold to get a black manual 92 Accord Lx, which was sold to get a blue 90 Accord EX after BMT in the Air Force, that was recently sold to get a White Auto 93 Accord EX. Now he's attempting to do an Auto-Manual Swap.

The moral of this story is stick to what you love. You have no idea how many people try to down his love for a CB7 Sedan

IMO, it's important to spend your money on what REALLY makes you happy though. In other words, I don't mind spending my money on my 6th gen, BUT it should be something that is really worth it rather than just throwing your money away.

Like, if you REALLY are all about boost in general, don't spend your money on type r sidemarkers and mirrors and s**t. In the end, it's not a matter of spending money on an old car, but spending money on what you're really passionate about - which for more people on this site in this section is their 6th gen civic :thumbup:

lmao you always have something interesting to say...
i have had a 4th 5th and im on my 6th gen now and imo i love my 6th better than the others. if it makes you happy your not wasting your time or money your wife is just saying that so you will buy her s**t instead of spending the money on your car.

As I believe RonJ said one time, your wife may be malfunctioning. Does she have any CEL codes?
