2007 Honda Civic leaky door?

So both of my doors on my Honda Civic coupe were leaking when it rained hard or if I went through the automatic carwash. I went through the dealership to get new stripping (the one that goes all the way around the door.) My passenger side door is no longer leaking but my drivers side is now worse than it was before! I went to the carwash today and it was literally pouring through the door. I inspected the seals and they seem to be intact and placed in the correct spot. Is there something else I'm just missing that could be causing this? Any information would be greatly appreciated… Just not sure what else to do!

First car! 2016 Volkswagen Jetta SE or 2016 Honda Civic LX?

Purchasing my first car soon and am stuck between the VW and Honda. The Jetta is a couple thousand dollars cheaper, but I read that Honda's are more reliable and will be less expensive to mantain. My dad will be paying the down payment of the car, but I will be paying the monthly payments, gas, and possibly(?) any repairs (we haven't actually discussed that part so I'm not sure). I do like the features on the Jetta SE more than the Civic LX, but I also want a car that will be safe to drive. I don't care much about speed or exterior appearance. Just want a nice car I can use for the next few years that won't break down on me. I'm 18 btw! Thoughts on this?

Auto vs Manual(racing wise)?

Well i'm not into imports but i did get a 1994 honda civic coupe a while back(its automatic) its all stock but it looks all sporty and stuff (it was repainted all white with tinted windows and blacked out wheels). I always have other "tuners" on the street wanting to race me…

now heres my question… Does it really Really matter if you have a manual or not? I know with a manual you can start a race a high rpms to start off quicker rather than with and auto and start off with 0…

I mean when it comes to racing it all comes down to the drive train right? Like engine, suspension, trans, etc…

If two stock cars.(same year, same make and model, same engine, same everything) with the only exception that one is an auto and the other is a manual… Which one would win? Lets say towards the middle of the race and amost to the finish line… Who has a greatter chance of winning? Considering that they are excatly the same beside the trans

I'm not a ricer or anything like that… It just annoys me that people think just because they have a manual they are the big shots…
