An 8th south of the border

Hello!!, my name is Alex and I own an 07 Honda Civic Coupe in Black and I love it!, I'm 18 and I live in the outskirts of Mexico City, and I use my car as a daily driver.

It's my third car after I had a Merc C230 Kompressor and a Toyota Corolla LE, so yeah I do still miss the Merc but the Civic is a very good car very good value and chassis, the thing is it's an auto and I hate that, but it was my mother's car, she bought it brand new and for obvious reasons she went auto...

I'll edit the post when I get some pics of it, at the moment I'm just being lazy, but I'll try to wash it and take some pics later today.

EDIT: So here it is, just got back from my daily commute...





And next to his sister, the Merc

Welcome to the forums

For a DD, I'm sure auto will be fine, but not much point doing performance upgrades on it

Re: An 8th south of the border

Yeah I know, and it is a very good DD, and I do love it and I'm sort of considering swaping it for a manual one, not necesarily the Si just a manual will do...

Since I live in Mexico City, performance mods aren't quite out of the question since it loses quite a lot due to the height, so I was thinking of putting a Catback, CAI, and suspension upgrades, and some rims that I've wanted for a while, so do I bother?, or do I just wait and get a man or an Si???

I really like my car, but I don't think I'm getting a Honda after this one, there just isn't any that I like, and I saw the 9th gen civic spyshots the other day and I didn't like it...

Re: An 8th south of the border

OK so there they are, IDK why my camera is being sucky, but since it's my cell I think it makes sense, or maybe it's picasa, IDK

And good news, I decided to save up for an Si!!!!!! think may be getting it by the end of the year or early next year...
