    Well the EM1 Honda Civic Coupe is 1.6 doch vtec and not 1.8 as you said above. Tbh I think if you want to go for a coupe you'd be better off with the standard 1.6 sohc Ej6 version.

    An Em1 might be difficult to insure at your age due to it's high performance. Still it would be worth pricing insurance for the Em1 before you buy any car just incase. Btw a good coupe is hard to find at this stage. Most of them have fallen into the wrong hands and are wrecked.

    EM1 and EJ6 Are the same are they? Just the engine is fitter other? Or is Em1 longer wider?
