New to the forum!

Hey what's up everyone...I obviously just joined today. Not a noob to forums...but obviously am here. Just picked up my honda civic a couple weeks ago. It's a 2009 Polished Metal Metallic civic coupe EX with nav and bought it used from a dealer with only 10k miles on it. I'm loving it so far! Traded in my mazdaspeed3 for it believe it or not. I drive 150 miles a day and the 91 octane combined with worse gas mileage was killing me. Anyways that's my story about it. I also have another car which I guess you could call me "weekend warrior"...it's a 2003 twin turbo'd cobra. Glad to be a part of the Honda community now!!

Thanks! I picked it up for $16,500 actually...not bad for an 09 LX w/nav and only 10,000 miles on it. Here's one pic of it that I've taken so far. Already tinted

Re: New to the forum!

Engine wise it's good to start off with an CAI,then header,and then a cat-back exhaust.Exterior definite drop first,then rims,fog lights,and you already got the tint.Start off from there and work your way up.

Yahhh those were all items on my list...I definitely want it to look and sound good. Doesn't have to be too fast since I have another car for that

Re: New to the forum!

I think this might be one of the best all gen Civic forums.So many members that can tell you what you need to do to install something on your car.Just post up a thread on what you need help with and guys like 02civicsi02,xRiCeBoYx,and Gearbox will probably know what you need to do.
