No. Why? Cause I know my car is a civic and I do not think its some high performance race car.

why would it matter. You got your car for a reason. Most people should also understand that sometimes you don't have the money to get something like that and you have to deal with what you have. If they don't then they are ****s and you shouldn't worry about pulling up next to them.

people look at my car and break neck....

SO NO!

everyone likes my car..... the most important thing is.... I LOVE MY CAR!
so what if some kid has an M3 with Lambo Doors that his Daddy bought him....he will never understand the true value of a dollar, and how hard you work to keep you civic nice and clean!

Some people look at me and roll their eyes, while they are in their 1999 BMW 3 Series.... I guess they are just Jealous!

You feel embarassed? Unless you have riced out your car there is nothing to feel embarassed about. What do you expect? You drive a civic. There is no way to compare our cars to a Supra. If you feel embarassed about the 7thgencivic, than please get a different car. I turn alot of heads in my civic. yeah its not fast, but it looks good. So why sit here and b*tch about it? If your embarassed, than you do not deserve to drive a 7thgen. Get something else.

yeah i get that feeling too...people see me driving a modded 7thgen and automatically think that i'm just another ricer. it pisses me off that i can't show them otherwise in my slow a$$ civic.

sometimes, i think it'd be better just to have an ek or an eg. at least those cars have some rep and it's easier to just do a b16 swap (for what? $1500 to $2000 bucks?).

at the same time i'm grateful for my vic. it's reliable, and handles well and looks good. hopefully i can get a turbo going soon. but when i turn 25 i'm defintely moving up in the food chain. hopefully a type-s

Truth be told, I can drive any car I want (well, within reason) but I didn't settle for the CIVIC, I wanted it. And I get a lot of good looks in it. Especially since I shaved the badges off, so people don't know what it is right off the bat.

LMAO!!! she said designing hahahahaha....how cute lease:
