Turismo Dreamin Got a new car! sad sad day.

Well my friend Turismo got a new car cause like me he also blew up his engine. Well instead of getting a new motor he bought a civic. I don't know what to say, but sad sad day.

de-friend him, jk lol what kinda civic?

from what he told me a 4door 02 civic LX I think with 19,000 miles for $11,000.

Civics suck, There interrior is too plain Honda does make a badass engine though.

a friend that turned enemy lol, j/k as long as he likes it, i guess he wanted to stick to a 4 dr after the rolla time to swap out that motor

dood u just disowned us man.....

Bah! Be happy for the man! Congrats to him. Now, do a Corolla front and rear conversion to it and youll be set!

sad day in corolla history man.... 11 grand? come on dood lol

well I pretty good for him cause now he has a semi-new reliable car. I'd be happy also If I had a car newer then a 2000 model.

well yea at least the car runs hehehe.... he could've gotten a 02' S type certified with only 30k miles dood lol

Maybe he realized how suck a corolla is and the power of vtec is undefectable on this site. lol

for that $$$ i wuda gotten an older civic swapped in a b18 and ran the streets...but i guess reliability is an issue, cant beat a civic when it comes to that (unless its a corolla)

A b18 can be reliable to and not to mention the power that comes out of those.

Ban him without notice.

Yah, B18's are nice , pretty torquey for a Honda engine too...

how dare he! j/k he will soon regret it.I personally will never buy a HONDA again. i don't care what other say about it but the one we have right now has wound up in the shop more than our driveway.and tomorrow its headed to the dealer, again. I'd rather have the engine give out than the tranny in any car. why because in some cases its cheaper to fix and replace.

hehe.....well yea guys, i did purchase a 2002 4dr Honda Civic LX auto...its the same color as was my corolla....and yea its a non-vtec unfortunately....but thats okay....the car had 19k miles and they lowered their asking price from $14k to $11k for us....its a nice little car, and has some pretty reasonable power i must say....but i already miss my corolla....i sat in it before we left to go to the dealership and then sat in my corolla again after we got home and it was like bringing back memories....but thats okay, i mean at least i can say that i had a good experience with toyota's especially corollas since i bought my corolla with 97k miles about 2.5 years ago and put nothing but hard hard miles on it up until 176k where i basically killed the engine....well i can say that im not gonna drive the civic like i did the corolla...they had some EX model civics but they had way too much mileage on it...so i was stuck with either an LX or DX....all their DX models were too expensive and they didnt negotiate that much with them and the ones that they did were the ones that i didnt like.....so down to the LX models...only two LX models were negotiable and both had low miles...one had a sunroof and the other one didnt....the one with a sunroof was only $10k but it looked like someone rode a guard rail down the side of the car...so yup, i got this one without the sunroof.....ill probably keep it for at least 2-3 years until i get through college then im gonna look into some high-end cars....but come on guys, i still have the corolla......im suppose to sell it........for $400.....anyone????

$400?

The Doc wanted to do a V6 swap eventually..
*contemplates*

why didn't you just buy anudder rolla? its exactly what i did. i had the 98 LE then i bought the 01 S, now im gonna get a nudder one. a toyota for sure but don't know which one. I just needone for long distance driving.

sweet, cadetlee.....yea spread the word to the doc or anyone else you kno that wants the car.....my dad just told me to get rid of it....if i dont sell it, then he's gonna tow it to get it junked so i really want to see this car in much better hands.....

i was thinkin bout that......they had plenty of 98-00 rollas but in all honesty, i really dont like those front ends and i wasnt bout to go on with a front end conversion....i would want to buy it already with an 01-02 front....i like the 01-02's but those were pretty hard to come by in good condition and reasonable mileage here in tulsa.....same goes for an 03..i wasnt gonna get anything above an 04 tho no matter what car i got so i wouldve been stuck with only a limited choice of 01-03 for the corollas......i went lookin around for another 93-97 rolla.....man, i had NO CLUE how hard it was to find a 93-97 with these three things: tilt steering, power windows, and overdrive.....then after all that, its hard to find one thats in decent condition...and all of them have extremely high miles....the only one that even came close was a 96 or 97 rolla, fully loaded with a sunroof and everything.....only thing with that car was it looked like they were having some type of world wrestling federation match on top of the hood and caved in the hood, lol.....and the front bumper looked like it took out a mailbox or something too....i dunno, maybe tulsa just tends to buy sh*tty cars for consumers or something....

yeah i see what you mean. it took me 3 months to get my 01 S and found two at seperate dealerships, mine was 10,700 with 32K and the typical S options and trim and i found an 02 CE standard with 18K miles but the price was 13K and i did not really have any money at that time and didn't really like the fact that it was basic so i went for the 01 S.But now i am looking into another used Rolla 01-02 S and the Tundra and Avalon but those two will come after i get back from Cali. besides that its hard as hell to find any rolla nonetheless.

i want to get rid of mine but i have invested too much into it from top to bottom and front to back so i still don't know yet.

Hey guys....just uploaded some pics of my new civic...i really like the shifter on this little civic, it feels like a sport shifter...n yea i kno, its a cassette radio...im gettin a cd player tomorrow after i get this thing insured...

Nice, we got one a while back a Maaco and i drove it to the lady and it was cool but it felt as if though i was driving a butt scratcher (camaro). maybe it was becasue the way it sat.

well....i can say that the suspension on this car is incredible for stock.....very smooth but at the same time feels sporty when u need it to be...i really love how it rides...

yeah they do drive pretty good. i dunno i guess because i am used to the Rolla its what i prefer more i guess but i wouldn't mine a civic if it was given or lent to me.

Its got potential I suppose. I do notice that the front bumper looks like a different shade from the rest of the body. Maybe a front end collision or just the pic. LOL I guess I got no competition here in Tulsa now that your not keeping your rolla and our other friend is decided not to do any performance things to his car anymore cause he got a mustang.

It might be a honda, but it's a nice little civic you got Hope you enjoy it!
