Here is a moment when necro thread bumps are a plus. .
I loved this generation Civic and test drove a couple '01 EX coupes with manual trans. At the time I was 18 with pretty much no credit and Honda had zero interest in getting me into a Honda so I ended up in a Volkswagen.
I still am enamored about the odd displacement 1.7. Honda was like yeah 1.6, 1.8.......lets do a 1.7. I think the D17 introduced a bunch of new technology for the Honda line as well.
