I'm currently debating what I should so with my college savings that I started myself (before you guys assume I'm using my parent's money and start flaming me T_T)

I plan to mod my integra (not drop like 10k+ in the car.. a lot less) but I wanna make my car more fun to drive. Nothing crazy like carbon fiber the entire car, just more fun to drive. I gotta make that clear. Currently I wanna fix my suspension/bushings, get a lighter flywheel, replace clutch, replace timing belt, rip out A/C unit, finish stripping the rear 1/2 of the interior.

With that known here are my 2 choices.

Choice A: Go to college with college savings and keep my integra and mod it out slowly saving up for parts
Choice B: fck college and buy a car (But listen, this choice is broken into 2 parts)
~~~~Choice B-1: Purchasing a s2000, I can use my integra as the daily driver and my s2k as my toy car that I would start modding out.
OR
~~~~Choice B-2: Purchase a daily driver like a civic or something, and I can use my integra as my toy car. Finish stripping my interior, and engine swap it to a k20a.

How old are you? 18?

I should rephrase some of what I said though. Finish college with my college savings, not go to college.

There is no such thing as wasting money on a civic. T_T stick?

You can do a lot with a civic though and they last forever. -_-

Yes, you can do a lot of stuff to a civic. I've put only about 2,800 into mine. And that's as far as i'm willing to go. It's a auto. I don't like sticks unless it's a sports car, otherwise, i don't see the point.

Cause manuals are more fun to drive? You have more control overall? Faster?

Civics can be sporty. Civic SI? Mugen Civic? engine swap?

No. Just a civic hatch.

The SI's are nice.
Yes, Civics can be sport, the Del Sol, and CRX are what i consider sporty, anything else that is civic, no.

I love hatches. T_T

I think that you only see civics that way cause civics are so common. There can be really nice civics out there. Just rare unriced ones lol.

I wanna Mugen Civic =(

Yep. Most guys wig out over a civic hatch. Had a few guys in the past want to buy mine off me.

The funniest time is when I was getting gas in my car, and some guy walked up to me and was like hey, those are nice rims, is this your car? And I was like yeah, b/c I'm girly looking I can't drive this? lol, he smiled at me. And then, asked if i was willing to sell it for 5,000 dollars, and I was like no. Because what I want i actually can't cover the insurance for at the moment, boo

lol. I've been offered money for my car so many times. The guy that was pumping my gas offered me 5k too for my car. I was like I'm in school now on my way to class, and I got no other form of transportation.

But overall I'm glad I didn't sell my car even if it was a good deal. I love my car to death. I'd kill for my car.. lol

I don't go crazy over every civic hatch I see. I look at a civic just like any other ordinary on the road. But I don't look down on a civic just cause its a civic. Never know what has been done to it, therefore can be sporty. =)

I like integras more then civics though.. a lot more T_T lol

Yeah. Teggys are nice cars. I like Beamers the most. M3 is what I want, or a GTO, not to mention, a Saleen Mustang or Cobra. Also the 09 Camaro is very sexy though I do hate Camaros, my fiance has a z28 ttop camaro..i hate it. :/
