99 is obd2 and a hassle when u mod it.. stick w/ the 95.

the only thing that are better on the 99.. the IM flows a little better and the tranny shift works are steel, not alum.

I would go for it they body looks more modern and the engine would be very similar to what you have now.

yeah, very simple and inexpensive, all you need is a conversion harness (100 bucks MAX!) and an obd1 p28 (150 MAX!). yeah, if the body and whole car is nicer and you can afford it, i say go for it.

stick with the eg. your z6 is fine.
also, check with your insurance on the price difference.

well if your car is pretty shitty and you can get enough money to get the 99 striaght up, do it. I like both bodies, but if one is mint and the other is shabby, i'll take the monit one.

so if the new car starts having problems, you gonna buy another car? almost everyone here would help you fix your ---- now. well, some might point and laugh, but most would give some useful input.

what's going on with the EG?

Re:99 civic ex or chill with the 95?
 
I wanna trade mine for an eg. Yeah, the newer one is simply a nicer car, the interior is nicer, But I don't know what your driving record looks like but with mine, I'm paying like 300 bucks a month for insurance. Ofcourse I'm financing the god damn thing so I'm required to have full coverage. I'd like to have an older car just just to have cheaper payments and insurance.

are you in cali? Cause I think there was something past a year or two back that didn't require you to buy full coverage if you are financing. It's more like, you agreed to buy, you wreck you still buy.

If anyone knows for sure, by all means correct me if I'm wrong.

It's still the same man. Because about 3 months ago I just stopped paying my insurance. And then my bank started sending me letters saying that if I didn't show them proof of insurance they would make me pay for their insurance policy. And it was like 300 dollars for only collision and comprehensive. that's not even up to the legal requirement without liability. I figured that they'd never find out but a banker told me they call the insurance company like every other month to check up on our asses.

Keep your 95 civic and get a 96-00 EX tranny... that's what I have. :)

92-95 civics will go down in history as the first and last best civics of all time. ;)

Re:99 civic ex or chill with the 95?
 
Theres not alot of stuff to fix on the 95 and the motor is strong. i have a bad hood though someone did a hit and run and forgot to pay for my damges. my insurance wont go up because cars not under my name anymore its titled under a perfect 71year older driver ;D the only thing i like about the 99 is it kinda looks better and is in great shape, im starting to get rusted.I live in wisconsin so every car i own is going to get rusted.
