Hi all, im trying to get a new car and im between kia forte koup or civic. iknow as a 2010 car the price is nice but i looked for spoilers, air intakes, and many other exterior parts but ididnt find that many choices, thats why ichanged my mind to the civic, what websites have the parts? did somebody beat the civic yet ;)???
And finally my question is can you guys tell me how is the insurance for the koup.
Thanks :)
 
My insurance increased by 15 dollars per month due to it being a Koup and not a 4 door like my last ride. Don\'t judge by the after market parts since availability is changing pretty quick. Non si civics can be beaten by the SX pretty easy by pure HP. I haven\'t had any Civics try against my EX they just stare at the car.

I don\\\\\\\'t like the Civic interior but to each is taste!!
Non SI civic are a bit under power with low torque engine (for that mater the SI is too)!
I don\\\\\\\'t like to pay upfront for resale value, I\\\\\\\'ll keep that extra money in my pocket and make profit out of it!
Buying a Koup is more a gamble since it\\\\\\\'s a new model and Kia is less reliable than Honda (apparently)
Insurance: I was quote around 100$ more a year for a Civic SI than my Koup SX..... so not a big deal here!
As for me I wouldn\\\\\\\'t trade my SX for a SI even if they would cost the same!!! For cheaper than an SI you could have an SX with intake, full exhaust, and tune (when it become available) and eat SI everyday!!!
Check TurboKits.com for aftermarket!

Turbo and Supercharge are two DIFFERENT way of boosting an engine HP (force induction).
It doesn't matter if you are auto or manual!!!

Correct...LoL Easiest way to tell the difference:
Turbo is spun up by the exhaust
Supercharger is turned by a belt (like the alternator and AC compressor)
