you don't need to tell us that you may re-think your ownership, that's up to you...there are always those Civic that you hold such high esteem;-) Besides 2/3 of your posts rake heavily on Saabs.
The only major repairs on my '88 have been 1 clutch (the car's 2nd), CV boots, 1 headgasket (several high heat episodes from previous ownership) and several sets of motor mounts. Not bad considering I have over 260hp,,,and close to 200K (on original tranny BTW). I bought the car with 86K km and these are the only major jobs, with exception to modifications and minor maintenance, for the entire life of the car!
It's also up to you if you want to spend the $$ to keep it in good maintenance...you know, the car (that you refer to)is damn near 10 years old and mine, well... it's getting close to 14!
