MAN, I GOTTA GET A STRONGER ENGINE!

Well.. I never drove in anything but a Corolla/Civic/Camry/Protege5 (auto)....

so I didn't know what all the big deal was with paying $5k-10k for a better engine.. performance.. man.. who gives a crap right?

Anyways.. today I went on my friends car (old *** 91 Integ) .. he's a car enthusiast.. his car has some imported engine( he said 160-171hp ) or whatever....

I say "let's see what this car can do that my car can't do"

He accelerated fast as he can... What the **** just happened??

Let's juss say... next car.. will be a STICK + at least 200hp+, but I won't rip out my rear seats like this guy.

I love my car, too. Porsches to Hondas is an apples to oranges comparison. If I bought a Porsche and mildly modified Hondas were running with me, I'd be depressed. But for the money, the Civic is a great car.

My next car is a 2000 BMW 323is or a 2001 325i. I haven't decided. I get a little more power from the 01, like 13hp i believe, but the sports package was better on the 00. Anyways, it has 187 and 200 hp respectfully (again, I believe) so I'll be happy rolling in a car that's an awesome balance of performance and luxury!

170HP really isn't fast at all. You haven't experience a monster of a car until you've driven something like a Camaro SS w/ LS1 or a Stealth TT (basically the VR4).

Come post this crap once you've driven those cars : )

Damn n00b...
