Accord , Civic OR MAXIMA?

Psyrage · #1 01-03-2002, 07:41 PM

i wanna start a new 'project'

its really hard to decide which car to choose though... accords are better than civics, and maxima's are way better than both of them together plus it comes with 190, 225, and 260HP .....
but it doesnt look as good as civics and the accords...
what would u choose as for a project car from maxima's , civics , accords?? and why ?

If its a project car, then it wouldn't really matter how much initial HP the car had, cuz you will build it up. if you want a car and just want to do minor mods to it, I'd get a maxima, a GLE (the highest one). I love that car. Black with Black leather, and you could do just minor stuff to it: Stereo system, exhaust, maybe some tint, and it would look tight. They are constantly coming out with new stuff for Civics and Accords, an if you get one of those, everytime something new comes out you'll want to get it. (like me). If you want totally mod the car, I like the civic, because of the engine options (B18C). I cream my pants everytime I say that engine code.

Personally since I'm on my second Civic, I'd probably go with an Accord. Although Maxima's are twice the car, as you stated, they are also more expensive, uglier, and have way less aftermarket options. I personally love the new 4-door accords... I want a red one dumped on some bronze 18's.

I love the new style Accord coupe EX V6...

Maxima (Stock for stock, it's better.) See Stillen for aftermarket support.

Plus, You'll have a reason to plaster it with tons of Nismo accessories!

As i read your text between the lines, you seem rather convinced of taking a Maxima (it's way better ....) so why don't you just go by what you think is best in your opinion?

My opinion: 5th gen Civic HB

I'd go with the maxima...i dont see many fixed up maximas around and when i do they are very fast. my friend has an older max...a 97 i believe...but he is basically stock and put a zex nitrous kit on it (which wasnt good since he doesnt have any internal mods yet but hey its his car) and his car flew (even with 5 ppl in it!) id watch out maximas arent mom-mobiles anymore......

Nissan is bringing NISMO parts to dealers in 2003, so high performance, warranteed parts are on your way for the Maxima.
