Ok, I am saving up for a honda, I am looking into one of the hatch models, because they are so light, but I might get the ex coupe. I dont know. What would be a good civic for me? I am looking for easy power(mainly accel and torque), handling(more important than power), and comfortable (I am 6'0 taall)

Whats your budget.? when buying a honda your budget counts the most. You have to have the budget on depending if its stock or modded and if its modded what mods are done.

Early on when I started driving my Civic, I was using the hatch and folding down the rear seats to transport a bunch of musical equipment, and it worked well.

I'm not familiar with the current models and cargo space though.

Speaking of the weight, it's also very good driving in snow.

92 Civic hatch with b18 can do the trick. but of course you should prepare your pocket for expenses...

I have a 91 Civic Si. Im 5ft 11in, and fit comfortably. They have more space than most people think.

I agree. Even with the back seats folded down to stow away cargo, the front seats of my 89 could be adjusted for lots of leg room in the front.

I never found any problem with any of the Honda models. My colleague used to drive a 89 model till date and now he brought the 97 model, but it still is Honda. So what budget you looking out for?? As far as I checked out there shouldn't be any problem with the height adjustments. There surely is space for the ones of your height. If you wish go out to the nearest showroom to check out all the concerns that would be great.

Also I'm really not sure on the availability of the earlier models for sale. You see plenty of them still on the road, but I don't know if you can pick a year from the nineties for example and just go out and buy one.

I guess the Auto Trader publication would be a good place to look.
