Take my advise.
DONT get a car that you've crashed before, you just wont love it the same.

98 spec DC2 JDM ITR or EK9 Civic, both must be imports 
But for your money you could most likely only get a 96spec ITR

They do lack grunt.
Been out in my mates on the road and on track and as much as i love the way this thing handles,it just dosnt have the torque to pull it hard.
On the open road,my old XE Corsa used to leave him like a pile o shite.
It all depends what model ITR you have and if you drive it properly, Just leave it around 5.5k and it will soon go. Any car can be fast in a straight line but anyone can do that, takes more skill to do corners safely at speed.

Golf gets my vote too. Clio is a good car but not so weld made, JR will tell you, if you do get one though id buy his. I wouldnt get anything VTEC - so overrated.

My dads S2000 was a huge let down, slower than my clio. Gavins CTR didnt feel that fast it was all noise, Pauls disapointed with his S2000 too. Im sure people will agree, im only sharing my opinion, not stating fact

Lee your car is probably lighter than CTRs, ITRs and S2000s
