I got to drive a 5speed CRV today! I thought they only came in auto. It was pretty nice to drive but i didnt like the way the clutch felt. I also drove a 2003 element which was awesome as hell. It was automatic but very fun to drive. It handled kinda like an accord but was about as short as a civic so a little better and turned better also. I was tlaking to the owner about it and he said it was 21k but he said there was a lower model for 14k that lacked A/C and something else i cant remember. He said he thinks the lower models came in 5speed too. But the really cool thing was when i popped the hood i saw a k24 ivtec sitting there. Its the same engine that came in the TSX. Very nice and i may end up tryin to get one somewhere down the line.

Sounds good :) One day my g/f and I went out and test drove afew cars because we were so bored..lol. Drove a 2002 or 03 don't remember..civic ex. Man those things SUCK..I couldn't beleive how slow it was. Also drove a 89 prelude si..that thing was pretty nice. But I've never driven a K series honda..I probably won't for another 10 years til they're as cheap as the B swaps are now :D

the reason the EP civics suck is because they have a lil more power and like 400-500 more pounds to em than us and alot more emission control shit. The ex weighs like 2600 compared to my 2200.
