    I have no idea what the G designates other than I get a few extras more than the regular DX...

    Hopefully I'll be able to get my money's worth out of this Civic as well

    That is a lot of distance on a car. Congrats on the new car, just feel sorry for you having to break in a new seat and a new a$$ groove. After all that distance, you must have a really good one in the other car.

    Retail value was $18 600 canadian. Options include air conditioning, anti-lock brakes, etc....

    No cruise control or power windows on this model which is fine by me. Also no "fin" either as that increases insurance

    actually I'm not the original owner of the camry. When I got it it had about 240 000Km. Great car but couldn't compare with the 2003 civic.

    A currency converter shows that as 11,781.60 USD. That is really good. I know someone that bought a Civic, and really got raked through the coals, paid above sticker price. She also didn't get ABS, and slid into someone only months after driving it off of the lot. I really feel sorry for her...

    HEHEHE...one of the guys here wrecked his car, bought a new truck after two weeks, and wrecked the truck a week later - $4000 worth of damage, and that was an estimate by a friend of his.

    Congratulations!

    Don't forget to add all the stickers you can find on the sides of your car - they do make it go faster!

    Cool Christmas present.

    And the coffee can exhaust pipe will add about 1000 horsepower, giving need for more stickers....

    Once wrote off a landrover on the fourth day I had it, wasn't exactly new though.

    Shredded a tyre towing a trailer over a hill, going a bit quick. Ended up sat on the roof with the trailer on top.

    To this day I've never quite worked out how it happened

    expect the same or better life out of your new honda, as mine 88 Civic wagon 365000 KM is still going strong, and imports have a tendancy to get better every year. (unlike domestic which only get worse with each year of production.)
