The Classic Honda You Can Afford! 2000 Civic Si - Hot Take

[@LiLgPnoy15]

The 2000 Civic Si is my favorite Honda. Can't go wrong!

[@M-t3ch]

@@LiLgPnoy15 The EM1 Si is a lot of fun!

[@Jac735]

Finally someone who isn't on the bandwagon these were the best SI in my opinion very unique 3 colors to choose from rare but fun at the same time and to me it still looks good in today's standards I'm sorry but the honda fan boys will give me flack for this but I don't care the newer si look uglier especially the sedans that's just me though

[@DMN3901]

This is a cool series man. Definitely appreciate these cars a bit more lately. Also, props to the owner for doing all this.

[@M-t3ch]

@DMN3901 The owner is awesome haha. I'm glad you are enjoying the series. These were fun to do! Lots of bucket list cars crossed off.

[@deadfishparty]

Hitting my mid 40’s and the cars I grew up with are now “classics”. When the fuck did that happen? This era was a generational shift, glad I was there smack in the middle of it.

[@M-t3ch]

@@deadfishparty I sort of wish I had been able to enjoy an era of cheap 90s and 2000s cars. These have always sort of been old and slightly out of reach for my generation.

[@0MosDefinitely0]

That's my dream car back in junior high. Still looks good in 2024

[@M-t3ch]

@0MosDefinitely0 It was everyone's dream car before the age of 18 haha.

[@toma3447]

I love it. I was one of the lucky ones who got one right after high school in 2008. My was a 2000 in SI blue.

[@M-t3ch]

@@toma3447 That’s awesome! These used to be everywhere.

@Jay-sb2xs A little old, but these are easy to work on.

[@johncabrera984]

Wow 😯. Brand new

[@M-t3ch]

@@johncabrera984 It is in very nice shape!

[@dismembur]

selling one in this condition with the b16 is not cheap haha i wish. everyone overprices them

[@Kseriesftw]

K swap and be hurting some v8 egos!

[@EvanDannenhirsch]

this car would probably fetch $15-19k. Maybe you can find a more worn down example right under 10k. Not "expensive" but these certainly aren't budget cars anymore!! Look into a 97-02 manual accord or acura cl if you want a $5000 stick honda

[@M-t3ch]

@user-wx7co9hr7e Look at Bring a Trailer! You can find them for 20k, but those cars are very low mileage. A lot of them hover in the 8-15 range for the nice ones.

[@JohnPaulCamposHohnerAnacleto]

@@EvanDannenhirsch You are correct, the EM1's are 💎 now and they are cheap as they were only made 99-00. You can get a salvaged title under cheap . However to find one in great condition is super rare with low mileage. Someone offered me $12K for my EM1 and I declined and said it was not for sale recently.

[@vucci8378]

They’re like 15k now lol. How much lighter does it feel compared to the itr? Which one is faster

[@JohnPaulCamposHohnerAnacleto]

@@vucci8378 Some one recently offered me $12K for my 2000 fully restored and painted EM1 just by looking at the exterior and not any of the add ons installed. (AEM V2 Cold Air Intake, Yonaka 4 in 1 Header (Acura Integra Type R JDM), Yonaka Full CatBack Exhaust. It is the icon of the Hondas that ended the era of the 6th generation, they moved onto building different Civics that were different and no longer special.

[@M-t3ch]

@vucci8378 Nice ones can still be had for less. ITR is faster, lighter on its feet, and more raw. That said, this car is not too far off. It sort of feels like a watered-down version of the same experience. However, it is also wayyyyy cheaper than an ITR, and when comparing the price difference, this is not too far off in hoe fun it is.

[@JohnPaulCamposHohnerAnacleto]

Hey boys, I just finished restoring my 2000 EM1, Starlight Black Pearl all stock body kit, rear spoiler and stock rims. It has 175K highway miles, I will be doing a video soon of the all the work done. Here is a clip I have, picking it up after it got fully painted kzbin.infofJw7p96-lac?si=gNyomvh1b9BLT99b

[@M-t3ch]

@JohnPaulCamposHohnerAnacleto Yes! If anyone buys it from this video, reply back.

[@JohnPaulCamposHohnerAnacleto]

@@M-t3ch My EM1 will not be for sale, it was 2nd car and has a lot of history. It will be garaged and not driven in the rain.
