Don't know if this is a repost. If it is I'm sorry but I thought everyone might want to see this.

Rep Power: 0 A stock 7th Gen with smoked headlights... **** the K20 (yeah, it's old news Malaysia gets them - and it's an automatic, which makes it slower than a 5-speed 1.7 anyway). I wish we got smoked headlights but that's Honda avoiding looking like Toyota (over in the States).

Rep Power: 0 "...the meter panel that came with red illumination to make the cockpit “more styling”. If you are in California or anywhere in the United States, then it is a trendy Fast and Furious look, but in Malaysia it is simply a Beng thing. "
I thought this was funny how Malaysians see USA drivers, but the fact is that we all want to get rid of that red/orange illumination. And can you imagine everyone in Malaysia saying, "dang man, your car so Beng!" haha. I guess Americans are somewhat similar by saying, "your car is banging." Whatever...

Even if a Civic is not particular flashy, fast or loud when it leaves Honda’s factory, it does not take Ah Beng long to perfect the car. Just slap on a full complement of Mugen Power and Type-R stickers, complete with Japanese characters that one can’t make sense of, plus a set of humongous mufflers from Ah Heng Pakar Ekzos, and you have the archetypal Bengmobile ready for the pilgrimage to the Temple of VTEC (yes, there really is such a group).

It has more power than the D17, it has 150 hp, you're a complete dumbass if you think it's slower than a 5-speed 1.7. Unless you're a pro, a 5-speed automatic is consistently faster than an equivalently powered 5-speed manual
