Im not saying that cause i hate on other cars one of my dreams cars is actualy a vdub. I just think this hateful thread is retarded.

[Elliott18t]

eh, it goes both ways really.

[92accordex]

yeah but why a civic? why not like a se r or one of the other cars you mentioned. Seems like pretty much hate how you just talked bad on the civic and no other cars. You're telling most people what they already know. Civics are slow and have no tourqe and most cars are faster than them and their overpriced for what they are. Now there is a thread about it? I mean yeah you want to share with everyonee how bad hondas are and how gay they are but IMO this thread is a waste. Don't want to be negative or hate on anyone. keep on posting up keep on topic. just my .02

[Elliott18t]

this is just an article i pulled from the internet. lol. I havent seen many articles that dont praise hondas.

[TunedIS300]

[92accordex]

Exactly, you're just spreading the honda hate on to another forum.

I started my car career as a Honda enthusiast. I had three integras. Great cars.

The ONLY reason I switched to Nissan is because they made a 2door rwd car with a back seat that was in my pricerange. The S2000 was in my pricerange, but thats a car thats practical for.. hmm.. nobody? The thing I miss the MOST about my GSR.. is the transmission. After having three hondas, and going to a KA24DE, you can really appreciate a quality transmission, which is certainly nowhere to be found in a Nissan. I think Honda has just lost sight of what their customers want. They need to break out of their FWD only comfort zone, and give us an AWD or RWD car that could be a practical daily. Either some Evo/Sti competition, or some Genesis competition.

And Acura just needs to give up altogether. Have you seen that new TL? Looks like they flew it in from Mars.

[Elliott18t]

yes definately, They only make it LOOK like they are competing with the market however they are not IMO.

my old '08 mkv gti sucked balls until i reflashed the ecu. they should of came that way stock. stage 1 (intake and reflash) dynoed me 233whp and 280wtq and a 14.0 1/4 mile time. i never drove a civic si but if it's anything like the rsx type-s it has to be sort of fun.

I think rsx type-s are funner. Friends sister has one.

I agree though, I thought the same thing when i got reflashed, lol.

I looked at the RSX-S and the SVTf. I went with the SVTf (for the 4 doors)but it was a really close decision.

But needs a turbo at 15k?

HHR's are garbage.

Only new economy cars I would buy would be a Mk5 or 6 GTI or GLI or a Civic Si, although I want to see what the next gen SI's are like.

Who cares if they're not fast, they're quick enough to have fun with and more importantly they're built well and reliable, not like your POS HHR. If I wanted a really fast car I'd build one or take my bike.
