    Why do you want to swap cars?

    The coupe is hardly a big car! It is a 2 door car, it's not really meant as a family car ;) Width wise the civic hatch back will probably be the same width, it is a bit shorter in length though

    Is this swap free? If it is, come up 5 years for a similar car for nothing, why not.

    If it's costing you, don't change. Don't fixed what's not broken and all that.

    Lol, i know it sounds stupid, but the coupe would still be more appealing to me. If there is nothing wrong with that 00 car and you like it, well then go for it.

    seeing as the 00' Civic checks out then there shouldn't be much of a risk and you should get a better resale price on the 00 vehicle also.

    How long are you looking to hold onto the 00 civic for? If you have an intent to sell it in the near future then I'd go for it.
