For comparison: The Civic has much higher fuel economy and dependable for everyday driving. It will get you from point A to point B year after year with worry free maintenance but you can't take it off-road. The Wrangler I believed is either a 4.0 liter I-6 engine or a V-8 350cu in. engine, its built for uses on/off road vehicle with versatility but its not an economy car for everyday driving ( unless fuel consumption is not a factor for you ), the Wrangler required some maintenance if you uses it offroad frequent like replacing rear axle lubricant and/or drive axle lubricant check! Its definitely not an economical vehicle but it will get you from point A to point B not a problem. Price range also big different in both cars and insurance is definitely not a same.

98 civic. If you crash it you won't feel like a moron buying a some what new car. Then again if you like to go off road get the Wrangler.
Jeep--- tips over easily, horrible gas mileage, somewhat new!, off road!!!!!
Honda-- great gas mileage, hold value, you can customize it.
If I were you I would go for a car that is older then both! Y cuz as you first start driving your bound to make mistakes. Every little scratch will cost you money when you try to sell it. Spend less, invest what you have left. Then in about a year or two, you have double that and then you can buy a brand new car!!!

Unless you live in the back-road rural area or have much snow in
the winter season, it would be in your best interest, for your first
vehicle to get the Civic. Why? For financial purposes. The
Civic will be a lot less to maintain on gas and servicing
-especially after the Wrangler's warranty is over.
I think you can go to Edmunds and look up the "True-Cost-To-
Own" feature that they have to see costs.

Civic! Definately! Wranglers eat more gas, cost more to register and insure. A Civic is one of the most easily modified vehicles of all time! You can make it fit you like a glove! They get awesome mileage, parts are cheap, insurance is cheaper, and they're incredibally safe for a smaller car!

The Civic, I assume since this is your 1st car, you must be young and starting out in life. Trust me, the money the Civic will save you, you will be able to use for fun things, not car repairs. Unless you live out in the boonies and your driveway is 2 miles of dirt and rock, go with the Civic Si.

the civic will last longer, better made car. its also a ton better on gas. depends on how many miles it has, but a civic will just run and run. i dont know much about jeeps. but i will NEVER leave the honda / acura family. i had an acura tl for my first car and its still going strong with well over 200,000 miles on it, and i just got a new honda civic. great car.

sadly i say go with the civic, im not the bigest fan but they have good gas mileage, jeeps have really bad mpg and they are not very good daily driver, a civic will be alot easier to keep maintained and they are somewhat fast, but you dont want to be dealing with filling up your tank twice in one weekend like i do lol

'05 Wrangler, because it is newer and should have fewer miles.
