I wouldn't make that generalization for all civics bro. There are plenty of civics out there that can contend with subarus and other great cars.

Wow that is a great price , my dad wants me to pay my SI off and give it to him. Which would be a great idea, I would have no negative and he gets a pretty new car. A year and a few months, I should have my EP3 paid off. So maybe I will wait to after that.

Then again it is your opinion :banana:
Ignore him Peking. Nice car btw. My gf has the same exact one in black still stock though. For some reason I enjoy driving her Civic Si daily compared to my WRX. It's got lots of pull and the tranny shifts pretty smooth. Great low end torque compared to WRXs. Driving them is so effortless too and I'm guessing they'd be real quick once turbocharged. Good luck in getting your WRX. It's gonna be a whole different car. You won't be able to go 1st gear doing 25 mph like the Si . The WRX won't give you the the pull that an Si has either, but once the boost is up, you're gonna love it.

You've been racing with RICERS the whole time . Go to the track and race the civics there, you'll be suprised. My friend's daily driven Civic runs low 11s all day.

Paint the mud flaps and get some rims. Otherwise I think that car looks awsome. I like the wing.

Yeah, same here. Mostly ricers, who think there Civic is faster cause of the amount of stickers they have

Thanks, I really liked the 99-00 SI's too. Rumor is they are going to make the next breed of SI's back into a coupe.

LOL, he could have been. I know a few EP owners who run 13's low 14's (boosted). Not to shabby for daily driven rides.

Nice EP3 all you need is a oem typeR kit ...
The replica Type-R kit is nice, yet alot of folks have it. So I was thinging the Mugen replica kit. Goes along with the rest of my replica Mugen style stuff

I might get some rims before sept. That way I have different rims for Nopi Nats. Also thanks, the wing is very sweet.

Here are some new pics, the hood is gone (traded). And I have new (actually used, but new to me lol) wheels.
















Also now I have a Injen Cold Air Intake, and Rota Circuit 8 15x6.5 wheels and Falken Azenis tires 205/50/15 with Kyokugen wheel lock / lug set (silver)
