$3,800 for an engine installed at GM

Well I bought the Civic. It's a 5 spd, my first and stressful learning to drive it because I think i'm going to break it from all the stalling and bucking. Perhaps I should have waited to get a new Kia with a 10yr warranty. But my payments would be well over $200 for 60mo I belive. I'm paying $138/mo for the Civic, and everyone says they last 200k+ mi. Hopefully I made the right decision, I just want something cheap and reliable now.

Did you trade the K5 in or did you keep it?

Nice looking car.

I traded it, trying to go to college so I can't afford both. I think I'll buy another K5 in the future, I wish I kept my 80'Jimmy since I only got $500 for it when I traded it in for the Blazer, live and learn I guess.

There's nothing wrong with going down the food chain... unless you choose to be plankton (Kia)...

Why did you buy a used car (probably beat to death) with payments instead of buying a sub-$1000 econobox?
