i have a 02 coupe and its a auto. any suggestions on the si hatchs. my price range im going to hop in one around 80k. do they last long ? not doing anything crazy exhaust intake and lowered.
lol thats a lie, a ford will never last as long as a honda, period, beleive meI do believe he is saying that in his price range, he can get one with around 80k miles
OP....do you have more specific questions? A car is only going to last as long as you take good care of it. A Ford with regular maintenance done is going to last longer than a Honda with no maintenance performed.
I dont think so. Yes if you take care of both cars, the Honda will most likely last longer. But a Honda is only as reliable as the owner takes care of it.lol thats a lie, a ford will never last as long as a honda, period, beleive me

like what exactly ???I have had my car less than a year, and I have already spent about 45% of the amount I paid on the car in serious maintenance and fixing it.
First it was a tensioner spring on the clutch that went, had the whole clutch replaced. Then my front caliper was locked up pretty bad, had that replaced, and had the timing belt done at the same time. And then just recently my shift linkage broke. All totaled up, $2448 in repairs and maintenance since I got the car.like what exactly ???
They really aren't that bad, just really do a head swap and they are almost as good as the rest of the K's. It is cheaper to buy an A3 anyways, that's what I did and I bought an A2 head and building the rest, god I can't wait until its done and I can drive it lol.Anyway OP. I think you would be much happier with an EP3. They may not be the best looking, but they arent terribly ugly. And I would love to have a K20A3. Dont listen to those who say its the bastard child of the k-series....I would rather have a bastard child k-series than most other Honda engines.
x2op if your getting an ep3 i suggest the 04-05 ones cuz they have the 5 luggers compare to the older one that have 4 lugs
