Hey guys,

Recently been looking around for a new DD. Kinda have some in mind, mainly leaning towards automatic imports such as '03-06 Lancers, '01-05 civic si's, '00-05 jetta/golf and '01-05 acura EL's since they meet my budget.

I'm fairly familiar with the older Honda's as the last few of my cars have been Honda but don't really know too much about Mitsubishi and VW. I've heard some good and some bad about it but it's not a car i'm familiar with. I know this gen of civics and EL's often get a bad rap for shitty suspension but asides from that, they seem decent. I'm really looking for some input on which of the four would be ideal for a daily. And any potential problems i might face down the road that's common with these models. If anyone has a suggestion for a good DD, i'm open to that as well.

Thanks in advance!
