Can I buy a Civic Si and not get made fun of?

My work commute just went from 2 miles to over 60 a day, sometimes more. Want something fun, and efficient. Not a fan of Civics, and used to hate on them before I drove one.

Depends OP, are you going to strap an obnoxiously loud exhaust on it? :^)

of course ;+}

we recommend Civic Si's all the time. Get a 2006+ one. Preferably a sedan

Fuuuuuck no. No fart can at all. I wouldn't buy one unless it was stock anyways.

The seats in the one I drove were amazing. I think it was like a 2008-2010. What years are good? I'd like to stay well under $12,000. And have $$$$ aside for tires, battery, alternator, clutch, fuel pump, etc, and any other wear and tear items I might not know about.

Why sedan? Aren't coupe's always better? No kids, no friends, no need for space, I have a truck too.

I've had an '06 Si for a couple years now, and I've kept it bone stock. All I've done is replace the clutch, and regular fluid and filter changes. I get a bit over 30mpg highway, which is what it sounds like you'll be doing mostly.
I do wish I bought the sedan though. Watch out for galaxy gray metallic though, the clear coat is garbage. There was a recall on it though, but it has expired for 06 and 07 cars by now. If you get the color, make sure it's new enough to be validx or that it had been fixed already. Though Fiji blue is the god-tier color for those anyways

Get coupe

>galaxy gray metallic
thanks for the tip about the paint. I test drove a black Accord Coupe (2010) and the clear was BAAAAD

Elaborate the sedan reasoning? Long wheelbase more stable I know, but I don't have kids, and no friends, and there won't be anyone else in the car, ever. Probably won't even use the trunk. I have also have a gmc 2500.

I didn't see your post about having a truck while I was writing mine. Mine is my only car is pretty much the only reason.
Seat bolsters on both versions may not be comfy if you're heavyset. Not that I'm thin, but if you're big they might dig into your sides
