Re: What did you have before your civic???

I don't have any pics of my old car, but I had a 1992 Toyota Paseo. It had an exhaust leak so it sounded like a mean go-kart, and it short shifted second gear, but I fuggin loved that car. My friends in high school dubbed it a "frappachino powered stunt-burst paseo"

Re: What did you have before your civic???

Had a 2006 scion tc, then I had a son, Its hard to keep pulling the car seat in and out so now I just bought a 2002 civic sedan for my wife. I'm going to put hid's, the oem style fogs on it and a intake. Not sure if I should lower it, but swaybars are looking good. Not sure if exhaust is a good Idea yet ether after all It's a mom and baby in it all the time. Wife likes it, but she has to remember how to drive a stick.

Those scionTc's are nice...I dated a girl that had one. Pretty quick car...til she flipped end over end on her way to school one day :/.

And you should mod out the Civic for your wife and kid....so they can roll in style!! and be able to beat the ricers!! :P

My buddy has a 95 neon and that thing is tough as sh*t! He abuses that car soo much..bounces of the rev limiter everyday and it handles just fine....even handles a 90 shot of NOS! Idk how it hold together...but it does. Musta been a good day at the Dodge factory that day.

And lifted trucks im still into...but I had a Prelude once and it was amazing.


I actually had a few other cars besides the ranger guys..but no pics..

1.1973 Datsun 620
2.1989 Honda Prelude SI
3.1981 Datsun 720 4x4
4.1991 Toyota MR2 Turbo
5.1992 Ford Ranger 4x4
6.and now my 2003 Honda Civic EX

Thats awesome!! Yeah I miss highschool and ive only been out for 2 years lol. I had an 89 Prelude in highschool (real clean and had a B20 non vtec ) anyways I put ebay lowering springs on it and everytime I would pile people in the back the rear struts would bottom out on everything! So I got rid of the springs and went back to stock.

Re: What did you have before your civic???

I sold a 2004 Celica GTS and replaced it with a 2010 Civic Si.

The Celica was a great car. I just needed something a little bigger that did better in the snow. The Si does everything I need right now.
