Need Help Deciding which car to buy

Well after 2 years of spending too much money trying to make my DSM work right I've finally decided to sell it and buy me an Honda Civic. The only problem is that I'm not familiar with Civics. Can someone please help which which car to buy? What year, model and the max price for each. I don't want to do the same thing I did with the Laser I bought. I bought it for way more than it was worth so maybe y'all can help me.
