My 10 year loyal Honda Civic SI was crushed this weekend by a drunk driver (while parked, no injuries). Just got word from insurance that it's totaled, not surprised about that.
Car shopping has begun. I have a $10k check coming at me, figure I'll use it as a down payment on something. Suggestions? I want something I can tow a dirt bike with.

^ definitely getting used! no doubt about it.
and yes, I was extremely surprised at getting 10k (actual number is 9888, close enough).
Ideally the new car costs 20-30k, 30 being on the high end of what I care to spend. If the down payment cuts the cost in half, I will be a fucking grin-machine.
- buy an e46 bmw m3, great car for probably around 20k, not sure about the dirt bike though– spot13

10K... and you've got to tow a dirtbike?
I'd get an old, cheap toyota pickup for $2k and spend the $8k on a tuner Integra...

  The older Intrgra's are fun, I haven't seen one in good shape in a long time, they all rusted out around here– spot132/3

10k is probably the best payout i've ever seen for a car that old. hopefully you won't be getting a call back from the adjuster saying 'oops' on his initial market value appraisal.
