Which is the better buy

I have two choices... I can either go with a '99 Honda Civic SI with around 75,000 miles that has a ton of mods (Turbo & intercooler, Racing seats, Lowered, Gauges, B/O/V, Camber kit, Full black widow kit & hood) for around 11,500. Or I could go with a '02 or '03 Acura RSX with around 32,000 miles, but completely stock and will be around 12,500-13,500. The RSX might either be Type S or not...so if it isn't Type S is the Honda a better buy...or still go with the RSX???

Also as far as the turbo goes in the Civic...does that automatically make the insurance prices go up? Would it be best (and is it easy) to just take that out?

Thanks in advance,

Re: Which is the better buy

I'd personally go with the acura rsx. Its newer and has less mileage. The civic has probably been raced quite a bit. Its up to you though. And yes, the turbo will make the insurance go up.

rsx, dude.

Problem is, when you buy a totally modded car, you might just be buying someone else's headache on wheels. Who's to say the turbo's in good shape, and that the engine timing is OK?
