I think the JDM's are the best
But what would insurance be like at 20 3ync
Its either buy a newish car like that for a lot or spend about 4k on a corsa turbo
I really dont know what to do help!!

Yeh i think they look v
Its just i could afford to pay back a 6k loan easily enough over about 3 years, but would it actualy be worth it, are they fast,tunable and also would insurance be better than on a corsa turbo.

fucking nice, but the insurance won't be cheap. i've been getting quotes of £1500+ on DC2 integra's, thats the UK ones, not the imports. i'm 20 with 2 years NCB. good luck!

well the civic is made to have that engine, corsa isnt so more than likely you will run into trouble with the turbo

but you have to get custom bits and bobs and in the long run it more hassle, if something goes wrong with the civic parts are easier to get. as you said if its done properly it will go ok but i would rather have the civic

IF it goes wrong, A Corsa Turbo is DEFINETLEY going to go wrong and will still cost a fair whack.

Exactly mate, Honda are known for reliability and iv never heard a bad word about them Civic's either. And white is just so rare yet so cool.
I think you've made your mind up anyway
