DC5 I can understand, but an EP3? It's not exactly special is it
Jdm ep3 is my first choice if/when i have 10k.
Dc5 would be my second.

honda's have never grabbed me though the whole silly revving thing has never made me wanna buy one, ive driven a type r and one of the old 1.6 civic vti's and i just dont get the vtec to me it just got noisy not more powerful and not to mention its on in vtec for 1500 revs hardly worth it is it?

If your worried about buying a car that has been ragged, try to find a one owner car, imo it doesnt matter what the car is they all get a hard life. It all down to chance, also 9 times out of 10 cars would have been mistreated the worst while they were still under manufacturers warrenty.
A lad i know of had a Corsa VXR and drove it like a complete cunt, i.e going down the road in 1st gear bouncing off the limiter.
'It doesnt matter though coz its under warrenty'

Did look into evo's aswell but insurance was a killer as me and the mrs are still youngish lol..... Astra was pretty reasonable. Would have loved an M3 but if something would gone wrong on it I'd be worried about fixing it due to cost etc...
