hehe my car doesn't stand out, i'm going with more of an understated look. why everyone getting silver? because it's self cleaning [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] i can leave my car dirty for weeks and nobody will notice from a distance. not that i do.. often

not to be a d**k, but that's part of the reason i bought the Si instead, you all may say it's ugly, but it's distinguishable... i didn't want to be driving around in a car everyone has.

here at the university of arkansas, there's atleast 5 7th gen coupes that i know of, and several sedans. although there's only one other modified 7th gen besides mine, and its this ricer guy who has a fartcan exhaust, and some cheap-*** rims.

the only color i dont see to much of is red, not many in red, and only a few in blue as well, in orlando at least, ive know at least 7-10 modified silver coupes in orlando and ocala but for the most part ive only seen 1 or 2 nices ones, my favorite is the straight piped cut spring silver coupe with that F&F wing and fake chrome 18s hehe

there arent a whole lot of 7thgens out there and the ones that are none of the are RED [IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG][hr]
indeed!

there are only 2 other Red Coupe's near me (both 6th Gen's; but they have the big metal wings & lots-o-stickers)

I don't see many red ones either. I see more green sedans than red ones. The 01 Inca Pearl is even rarer than Rallye Red.

Some people feel the opposite. (Driving in a decent looking car everyone has instead of driving in an ugly car almost no one has.)

really? ...well personally I think my area don't have a lot of civic (coupes).....there are lots of 6th gens..but not 7th gens.....
....I don't know...maybe I just don't drive as much, since I work mon to fri and I come home and then I either work out or go to my gf's....so I don't drive around during the weekdays alot..

i don't think it's ugly... beauty is in the eye of the beholder. i feel like shallow hal. you guys may see a mini-mini-van, but i see a euro-sport-hatch. i dunno, the car gets me. i think it's cause it suits my personality...

Yep I see quite a few of them also and yes I will say silver is getting boring and I own one [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG]. But yeah very few people have the spoiler, the clear head lights with PIAA Xtreme all around, Limo Tint all around, and 17" rims. But yeah love my civic but love the new accord even more. Yeah I could have got the blue but the interior scared me, red I have never cared for myself my grandparents have owned red cars. Green isn't my color, so it was either black or silver hehe and with living in AZ at the time silver had to be it.

I own a silver HX 5 speed, I wanted a black one, but couldn't find one at 5 dealers I looked at, anyway, I see lots of 7th gens around here in Redmond, lots of lx's and ex's though all of them are stock. Lots of riced 6th gens here though. The other day I saw one that had 1 17 inch rim and the other 3 were their old steelies, i'm guessing cause of flats...

In Dec. '02 I bought a new white EX coupe. I was the only one on my block with a white Civic (black LX coupe down the street). To spoil the satifaction of having the only white EX in the area my neighbor's son just bought a white '03 EX coupe. Our cars look exactly alike except for the rims (my '02 EX rims are plastic/his are alloys). I wonder how many more people in our neighborhood will join the 7th gen Civic family.

Originality and Civics don't go hand in hand. Just count how many similar looking 7th gen Civics you see on the road the next time your out driving.
