Do not get me wrong, I love driving my friends civic, but it is neither fast nor has much potential to be fast. I know some people say they mod their civics to be "fast" so they are "different", but when every kid on every corner has one, are they really different? It is a parallel to "alternative" music becoming the norm with teenagers. And as far as having something cheap enough to modify, come on there are far cheaper things than civics to mod with the same amount of money to go faster in any competition. Lets think about this.
5k Civic + 5k mods < 5k 1st gen eclipse + 5k mods
5k Civic + 10k mods < 10k 240sx with 5k mods
5k Civic + 15k mods < BPU TT Supra
When looking at different price ranges of mods, a civic can be outclassed and outmatched in every category, AutoX, Drag, Road, Track, etc with the same amount of money by many other cars. I dont mean to sound like a dick, I just don't want people waisting their money for a mediocre product. Like I said before, they are cool cars and if having one is what you want, go for it, but if you are looking for a specific type of speed and not just fun in the car, you are using the wrong platform. Yes it is fun to mod cars that aren't practical to mod (I modded my highlander ), but I had no real end-goal in sight, no particular field of performance I wanted to dominate because I knew it was a futile effort. Basically what I am saying is if you like modding just to mod, a honda works, but if you are modding to serve a purpose (speed), a honda just isn't the proper car to start with. Just my thoughts.

i personaly dont think you have a ****ing clue... i will agre that MOST "honda enthusiasts" are a bunch of dilusional highschool kids.. but using YOUR logic why even buy a supra or a first gen eclipse when a late 80's mustang will completely RAPE it for less overall cost.. late 80's mustang + slicks + juice + gears..... you could EASILY do this for less than 5k and it would run great in the 1/4 (mid 11 second car unless its carb and you go fogger then you could see 10's) so lets ALL buy mustangs
im still trying to figure out why you are even here.. you are NOT a honda owner... you suffer from the "its stilla honda syndrome.."... so then get the **** out.. BOUNCE.. no one cares about your truck... in fact i HATE trucks a LOT.. and i hate your shitty additude.. and i also why we are on the subject.. hate your OBSESION with porn.. and your posting it all over the board..grow the **** up.. get a girl.. and MAYBE we will ALL be better off..
