yes

I know how you feel man.. I was in the same situation as you a month ago when my auto tranny was starting to shat on me. I just wanted to get rid of the 6ga and get something newer. But my parents ended up deciding to just replace the tranny with a rebuilt one for now and it's been fine.

I'm still encountering minor problems.. my wheels bearings are going bad.. I hear constant humming noises on the freeway. My steering wheel shakes when I'm braking from high speed. These are not that serious and don't cost too much to fix so I can deal with it for now.

I keep telling myself that if I had a nice set of wheels that I'm fully content with.. I wouldn't mind keeping the car for a while cause 6ga's are not bad looking cars. And a nicely customized 6ga is still a unique thing to see on the streets compared to all the civics and stuff..

But I'll eventually move on in a year or so.

I personally say,....... deal with it lol

When I bought my 6ga off the street for like 2k 2months later tranny was shifting REALLY bad so it needed a rebuild
Fixed
. Rebuild for that was another 2k(could have gotten it ALOT cheaper but I'm an id*t and went to a dealer)
. Manifold gasket(the rings they were broken,was taking in air KILLING a lot of gas,refilling gas every 2-3 days $40+ everytime,lost power)after I changed it the gas last me for a Whole week WOOT WOOT!!
. CV axe changed only driver side
. Spark plugs,wires,rotor,cap,motor oil,tranny oil changed
(all this was fixed within 10months, but hey feels new to me lol)


Need
. CV axle passenger side
. have a code of a cylinder misfire(I know that my car shifts a little later because of that I could tell)
. Paintjob
. New rims with Tires
. Shocks

Extras
. Muffler installed(then 1month later went off because I got a ticket for it)
. Intake
. drop
. gay rims(because they where scratched handed down from a friend)

The way I c it is if i spend that Much money on my 6ga or any other car there is No way I will sell it or part it out, only way I'll do that is if the car gets hurt =( hopefully not because that means I'll get hurt lol

I think that your car looks awesome but if its a pain to keep well do the math of a car that you want and see if you can afford the payments on the car also for the insurance gas and maintaince in the long run i think it will cost more or about the same because of the insurance

What do you want to buy if you sell it? Do you want something faster? Or something more reliable? I'm not the first one to say it: Cheap-Fast-Reliable you can only have 2. The 6th gens are pretty reliable cars IMO.

i would sell it, if you have that problem like me where you cant find a good medium with you car, then sell it, its not worth the problems and headache. I want to sell my car so badly, yet it is off season that i cant. I need something to get around. I have no problems with my car, i just hate that its so underpowered

I say sell it and DONT LOOK BACK!!! you are gonna regret looking back and saying, Ehh let me fix it, then ur stuck with a slow car that is worth little to nothing.

seeing how much u have already poured into the car, i'd say keep it for a lil while longer.. the things u still need to replace is doable (except for the steering rack), so it's up to u really
