Alright guys, time for me to lay it out:

When you get down to it, all $20k cars are econoboxes designed to get you to and from work for a while. They don't have lavish, plush interiors, gobs of power, and won't be seen on the road in 10-20 years from now. It's just a simple fact of life in that you get what you pay for. You wanna talk balls about nice interiors, get a Cadillac, Lincoln, Chysler, Lexus, Inifiti, etc... Want power? There are cars out there too for that. If you're looking to cheap out, get good gas mileage, a decent warranty, and some expected reliability, Civic down all you want, but please, stop acting like the Civic is the all-encompassing, perfect vehicle, 'cause it ain't. It's a nice car for the money, nothing more.
