this is correct

my friend just sold his 2000 Camry for a lancer OZ 4dr AUTO
while the oz is better than a damn camry, it sucks. less power, more weight. wtf? i thought civic was bad. his car is nice case its new, thats about it. last i rode in it it had about 275-300mi and he got it up to 80-90mph, but was worried about the break in.
i asked him what other cars he had taken a test drive in and he said none!! he was telling me that he wants to do all kinds of stuff to it, then I tell him he cant casue itll viod his 7yr warrenty, hes like oh.... i told him before to ask me/tell me when he is gettign a new car so i could help him and stuff cause he has no idea what hes doing!!!
nice things about lancer OZ:
wheels (friend says OZ sticker is coming off...? havent seen it personaly)
leather on AUTOMATIC shift **** is kinda nice, same w/ wheel
its new and clean
thats about it

ok im done, sorry

The new lancer....according to car-stats.com has a faster quarter mile than the EX. This is not to say that I would ever buy it over the civic. personally I think that stat is wack and the civic is faster. A few things I do not like about the car are the size of the wheel hubs, how tall it is, how it seems almost impossible to mod on the exterior, the cheezy *** interior, and the fact that it advertises being a ralley car when in fact it would probably break down almost instantly under any sory of ralley condition. </rant>

No doubt the very reasons he's NOT having problems with his car. . . . . AFTERMARKET PARTS.

The Camry is way faster, though, ain't it?

Anyway, don't trade your Civic in for a Lancer. You'll regret it laterz..

I agree with most of you guys that say honda is falling behind- What the hell happened with the prelude? I hope they come out with something pretty soon to keep up with those evo's wrx's and the infamous Srt-4. They are all aimed towards the youger generation. hook it up with a type-r or somethin ya know?

Well, if the rumours are correct, the U.S. should be getting the Type R by next fall. But it'll be in that egg of a hatch we've all come to love.. or hate... lease:

I still dont care for the looks of the new HBs, the motor is alright tho. anyway, I just hope that they make it a price that is more aforadable, unlike what sometimes happens...
