Damn right, i'm getting one of those when it comes out. I already have a deposit on it. Sports Compact just did a test drive/review on it and they said that car had the fastest slalom speed the handling was so amazingly good.

Rep Power: 348 Oh, HELL YEAH! Man, reminds me of the 323 GT. Anyone remember those? But only 30HP out of a T25? I would think they could've squeesed at least 45 out of that! Maybe even 50. Oh, well, still a civic eater!

b/c honda builds the civic for a completely different market: daily driver, family car. most people who buy civics fall into this category. if u wanted a faster car, honda has made it: rsx. even the si's or more tunable than ours.

i guess if we all stop buying civics for awhile and show more demand for a higher performing civic then they will eventaully have to give us wut we want.

You're an idiot. Maybe true to the models available in North America but not to the Japanese market. How about the RX-7? How many ford parts are in it? How about the Miata? How about the protege 5? See any ford parts in it? The only cars that use ford parts are the B-series truck, the minivan, the explorer whanna be and the protege sedans.

Rep Power: 0 I don't get that whole 2000 limit.
I mean it's cool to have a limited production car because it keeps the price up
But If people want to buy them and they are unavailable
Nevertheless everything I have read indicates that the car is a SERIOUSLY hard-core, torque-steering, knee jerckin', tire smoking, back aching rig. For that: [IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG] 5 beers.
