    Should I let my sister have the EP?

    My dad bought an EP and originally I thought I was going to get it, my sister finds out and says she wants it. Should I just let her have it or try to convince dad to give it to me? Heres my conflicts:
    Why she should have it:
    1. She is my sister, we are close and I don't want it to come between us.
    2. She is the older one and has been driving longer plus her car is an old 93 accord( I have a 99 accord atm)
    3. She has a longer commute and it saves gas
    Why I want it:
    1. I can drive stick shift, she is not there yet
    2. The car being a salvage, and me working at a shop I will being putting a lot of work into it
    3. It seems more like a guys car
    4. I want to mod it

    tough decision....

    Ive travelled A LOT in my EP3.. Ive driven it to Chicago..Wisconsin..cali..and let me tell you. it is the most horrid car ive ever been in to travel in my LIFE..i would opt for a grey hound BUS before I took my EP on another road trip..its that bad.. worse yet my friends 4 door subaru that blows the doors off my EP gets about 45mpg on road trips and I swear my EP doesnt get any better than 25mpg.. this must be due because the EP is ALWAYS revving high whereas the Subaru has 6 gears and longer gears so it just drops a gear and the revs set at like 1-2k whereas the my ep is at like 4-5+ on the highway

    Here is what I would do,.. I would let her have it because I would be 95% sure she would get tired of it real fast after the fun factor to her fades and than Id look like the good guy having given her first dibs.. if she doesnt wreck it before you get it..

    I agree that it is a mans car, it has a hard-core feel to it and connects you with it and makes you one with the machine.. a lot of cars are made to purposefully disconnect drivers from the driving experience.. the EP is a living,breathing machine. IF THAT MAKES ANY SENSE..drivers will understand. =)

    lol I'm hoping she gets tired of it real fast, but seeing as she is really a noob at driving stick, and her route to school is full of hills I don't want her wrecking it first...

    That was the original plan, when I first got the accord, she wanted it, now she wants the ep3...
