Rep Power: 0 | Well, it was a last minute thing. I was coming home from school and I opened the glovebox only to find my digicam, so I said what the hell. I was alone in the car so I was driving with one hand, that explains it. For all those bashers over there on streetfire, half of them are 14 and dont even own a car, let them say what they want. Pretty decent meant decent for a civic.

Rep Power: 0 | It could be because the windows were closed, that might have made the difference. If you want I can take another video with a passenger filming for all you queasy guys(lol) and with the windows open so u can determine. | |

Rep Power: 0 | Thanks for all the compliments guys, I appreciate it.
Unfortunately its a darn auto, which I hate. This is a parent kinda thing, they just hate for kids to have manuals.
I actually am very much planning on doing an m/t swap in the future, like 1 year from now. I recently got a new job making some more money so I should be able to save up for one.
Many ppl say why not just take the money and go buy something else, I say why buy something else when I love my 'vic so much!
But really, I am doing the swap, not just saying its being planned like some ricers do.
BTW Im only 18 and I did buy the car with my own saved dough over many years of xmas' and b-days so, thats why it takes long for me to save. My new job pays 15 an hour (as opposed to my old one making 7 in which I could barely give my parents the insurance money),which is alot for an 18 year old, so I should have the funds.
Plus I am very good at driving a manual, learned on a buddys CB7 accord.
Let the games begin! | |

auto trannies suck up a lot of hp ... also, the gears are much longer (since there are only 4 of them), so acceleration is a bit on the slow side. | |
