Well, you are about to get a bunch of posts on how "ricey" they both are, but I would go with the red. What is under the hood of each? Mods and all that good stuff.

ditto to that- i've always been a coupe body style person anyway. Hatches just don't do it for me...

I thought I was the only one who didn't like the h/b civic. Cars with more of a "fastback" style hatchback are better looking hatches. Go with the red. And I'd also like mods lists for each of those.

the silver one isn't an EX, it's probably a cx or dx

The silver one is a dx, i am going to buy the silver one because the ladies financing deal worked ot on the read one (an older lady is buying the red si, wtf is up with that?) Also, i am proud to say that i eat my rice daily, :p . I am looking for more of a show car than a haul ass sleeper, and since this is my forst car, i have been warned that the first ticket, doesn't matter for what, the car gets sold, so the more shit under the hood, the more likely i am to get in trouble. But i will eventually build and turbo the motor, but mom doesn't know that yet. HEHE :devil: :flipa: :greenchai :greenchai

i read the other post last night and saw that you had corrected yourself earlier, my bad, i don't see what's wrong with either, sure exteriors a little extreme, but it's all really clean, and those would make bad ass show cars

And also, around where I live, X Rated Racing and Midnight Project are big, so everyone down at the local starbucks(yea, thats where we meet) has widebody accord, bagged accords, widebody WRX, Eclipse GST's, Civic, about 10 preludes. We all meet every saturday night, in the Target parking lot, about 40 cars show up, its wild :sun:

if you're really bent on getting one of those then i would get one of the halos. but i would recommend getting the civic type r headlights.

I really hate halo's.JMO. If I had to choose between those I'd get the black housings. If I had the cash I'd get real JDM CTR's.
