#1247 of 1333 Have Both In Our Garage by sandman46 Jul 17, 2007 (5:28 pm)
We have both of these cars and we're both pleased with what we drive. I prefer the economy of the Civic and the wife prefers the power of her S model. We both prefer this size of car now, having previously owned mid sized GM cars. I did really like the Mazda 6 Value Edition that I saw at the dealership today though. A lot of car for the money.   The Sandman Replies to this message: psy (Jul 17, 2007 6:53 pm) eldaino (Jul 18, 2007 6:14 am) psy (Jul 18, 2007 6:37 pm)

Replying to: psy (Jul 17, 2007 5:11 pm) As for the deal. I got above KBB for the trade on the Civic. Did good on it. I didn't fare so well on the MZ3. $17700 OTD, including dest. Not bad,,, but could have been better. I figure if I'd limped the Civic home and purchased the Mazda3 today I would have got it for $17,200. O well I was done with the Civic and home was 40 miles away in a very crippled car. "   You got aboove KBB for a very crippled car? I think you made out extremely well, and 17700 OTD looks like a great deal on it's own. Invoice is 18135

Replying to: psy (Jul 17, 2007 6:53 pm) how long did you have the civic before all these faults presented themselves?   Suprised you still liked it at all after all this!   The r18 is a great engine; if they would have put the r20 in the new civics the mileage to power ratio would have been wonderful! ep3's actually have some competition! (not so great of a feat though, seeing as how that years si was pretty lame performance wise.)   sorry about your woes, but i'm sure you'll enjoy your car.   oh, and themosticles: the numbers for the 2.0 in the 3 are 148hp and i think about 135lbs of torque.   the 2.3 has 158 hp and 150 lbs of torque.

Replying to: themistocles (Jul 17, 2007 9:55 pm) If you would send me an email when you see something like that, I'd really appreciate it. That will get me here faster than if it's just left for me to stumble on in my regular rounds (which is what just happened). And by the time I've seen your post, I've already seen the problem.

Replying to: psy (Jul 17, 2007 5:11 pm) I would love to hear your reasons for switching to the Mazda3. Was it simply a matter of being gun shy about going back for another Civic? If so, why did you choose the car you did. Replies to this message: psy (Jul 18, 2007 6:50 pm) sploar (Jul 19, 2007 12:32 am) eldaino (Jul 19, 2007 8:29 am)

Replying to: eldaino (Jul 18, 2007 6:14 am) It had 10k miles on it when stuff started going wrong. At 41k miles that was enough.   I still like the new Civics. i just got a bad one.   psy
