I've always liked gen 2 and 3 Tegs. I got a screamin deal on mine for $1200 with 120k on it. I think Honda/Acura's are reliable and there are lots of aftermarket parts for em

I bought mine before I knew that it was possible for normal people to mod cars. I thought it was just for people with lotsa money and knowhow.
I bought my car because I knew hondas were reliable. I just stumbled upon it, actually. |

At first, I chose Honda kind of by accident. When I turned 16 my mom had this old beat up 84 Prelude that she let me drive till my dad found me something else. I LOVED that 'ol thing. hehe, looked like poo, but it was a car & I was 16.
Then, my dad told me one day that he'd found this CRX & I'd only seen the 1st Gen CRXs so I was like  NO WAY! I don't wanna see it! But dad said well...we'll go look, if you still don't like it, we'll keep looking.So I said:  fine. So, we went to look on the night of November 10, 1997 & when I saw it, I immediately fell in love with it. I knew right then I had to have it. The next day I went & pulled $3,000 from my savings & wrote the man a check.The rest is history. My car & I have been together since November 11, 1997. I couldn't be happier.  |

I could afford it, I needed something reliable and got good gas mileage...and I had to have the EX cuz the EX only comes in the blue I wanted.
So basically for the exact same reasons everyone else said. Although now that I have my Civic and I do love it, I wish I would have gotten a Honda in 99 when I could have gotten the Accord body I like sooooo much. I don't like getting used cars, I wanna know who's been beating/taking care of the car.

The best reason I got one is I wanted something I could work with that would last for over 100,000 miles. I think they are a good investment as well

The fact that it is a reliable, safe, comfortable and affordable car that actually has style. Can be modded up anyway you want for anytype of person. So many possiblities and potential come with the car, even if you dont do anything to the car it still looks nicer then half the ones out there. Customization was important for me and with a honda possiblities are endless.
