Sort of a rare car to have as a DD. I've seen too many DSM cars bite the dust, I get something more likely to stay on the road and off the jackstands.

Edit: Plus that interior looks like a coffin.

I probably wouldn't rely on a 2 year old DSM as a DD, much less a 22 year old one. Looks pretty clean for what it is though...

That's what I was afraid of
but I kind of don't want a civic since it will be stolen the night I bring it home
hard decision though
