Talking Civic not as slow as I thought.

I have an 05 Civic Si (Canadian) and read on here all the time how slow it is,so I was kind of leary racing anything.Last night these 2 kids and their girlfriends had the bass pumping,reving at the light.They had a V6 2 door Grand Am not a GT.I told my wife we were going to get smoked, but to my surprise I pulled that thing about a good 4 car lengths.We get to the next light their jaws are dropped and ask me what I have done to it.I told them nothing it is just stock 127hp.The driver says no way then can you beat me.I said well I just did.He rolls his window back up starts reving again,light go green I pull on him again about the same as the first run.We're stopped again at the next light my wife rolls down her window and tells them to go tell thier freinds they got whooped by a stock Civic.He tells us to go to hell and turned.What a puss.I own a few pretty fast V8's but this little "VIC" is a hoot to drive.

dont know what the Pontiacs can do, but with an extra person and heavy system, it really slows the car down.

I used to have an alero with a 3.4 (same car) With any more then 3 people they are really sluggish.
Ontop of that, the 3.4's only come in automatic, only the 2.4 and 2.2 are available in standard.
170hp, 200 torque...They're fast until 70kph (first gear) after that they're SLOW
(crap cars too)

This one was an 02 Se with the V6.4 I don't think there was a 2 door for 04-05 only in the GT Ram Air one.I don't know but it kinda shocked me I figured for sure he would shut me down like nothing.

I doubt it but I don't keep most of my cars past 60,000 kms except my Trans Am that has been one good car and I don't drive it the easiest either..

you're right...you can't own the same car twice...unless you sell the title and buy it back....(am trying to make the joke even less funny by analyzing it)


hitman's right though....Pontiac's are good at one thing...dressing up a redneck's front lawn....

Making fun of ford and bragging about how long YOUR engine lasts? Take a look at some the well taken care of fords that still have their original engine and well over 300,000 miles still truckin'. I know of two just in my neighborhood. I'm hoping my civic lasts me that long :-)
