You'll be happy with the mileage and dependability of a Civic. Sorry to hear you're leaving the Ranger family.

mmm EM2 ftw, l17 is 20x better than any motor dodge ever put in a neon. plus you can always kswap a beazy and have a m4d tyt3 sleeper. once you own a honda though your wrecked for life you can sell a honda but they never leave you.

lol at all the rednecks and their american car love. Always ****tin on hondas. When it comes time to buy that 4 wheeler..u know..so they can ride off in the bush and stick it to betty sue, the sister/babies mother/aunty....they all want something japanese. yamaha...honda...kawi...

How in the hell are you going to compare a NEON, to a honda? lol.

Get a honda. My 1992 integra never gave me one problem in all my time owning it. Changed brakes, oil, and regular maintenance. sold it when the car was 15 years old. NEVER had a problem. Or you can buy a neon. lol

my neighbor has a 1994 honda civic and the damn thing is indestructsable. the guys an idiot and boasts how he hasn't given it a tune up in like 10 years and he puts around 12,000 miles a year on it. Also, for the last 2 years, it's needed a belt of some sorts because the damn thing squeels when he turns it on. He (get this), will slam it into reverse while he's starting the engine. and tear out of the parking lot...Even on cold winter mornings.
so i guess their a good car to have if you are an idiot towards car maintenance.

I was arguing with the guy who posted before me saying hondas are overpriced.. I was implying that there isnt really anything better than a civic for the money

If you read the rest of my post you'll see that I said I would BUY a civic if I needed a daily driver
