Well I went and actually looked at this car yesterday and I was definitely a little dissapointed. I guess I should have been expecting it since the price was so low but it was really rough. And then I drove the car. Mechanically it felt very sound the handling was very tight and crisp the shifter had a crazy short through and it felt like it had tons of power... Which made it seem like it would be a really fun car, but for what I need I think it just would be too agressive for me. I am just looking for a smooth comfortable daily driver and that definitely would not have been it. I mean It would physically work as a daily driver but honestly I would probably just end up getting in trouble with that car.
But honestly one of the biggest issues I had was driving it was me. I am just so used to driving stick shift cars based on the engine sound.. and this car was basically silent unless I was wailing on it, which is something I basically never really intend to do. I mean I'm sure I could get used to it after a while but it was just so weird.
But hopefully some time this week I will be going to look at the other Civic. I may have to give up on my dream of getting a manual transmission but after actually driving this car I think I might be ok with that.
