Been looking at dozens of cars. Every time i like one I always get back out of the EP3 and think the other cars will be boring when pushing. 350Z for example has been slated on here for that reason, not to mention being fearful of RWD, lol.
The EP3 i love the rawness(relative to newer cars) and the engine and the chuckability, but they are very very common and don't stand out too much, especially to people who don't know about cars. I was thinking that the DC5 would seem to be the best of both worlds; screaming VTEC and probably actually better handling, combined with rareness and I think to the average Joe probably look very sporty compared to the 'it's a civic' EP3.
However, i have read that they pull about the same. Buying an 8K car that pulls the same does put me off.
Just wondering if anyone has done this. There are many threads about ep3 or dc5, but couldn't find one on EP3 to DC5. I suppose one way would be to buy a Kpro'd DC5 and reap all benefits. Just thinking out loud really have many ideas flowing.
