A perfect car would be a 7thgen civic with w K20A
why?
because i love the styling of my civic coupe
and i love the i-VTEC's potential

I have a feeling HONDA might roll out a CIVIC coupe with the K20's in the near future as a last year production model of the 7th gen.

Yes, i know honda has the Civic Hatchback with the K20, but it looks too cute, not agressive enuff, the RSX doens't look as agressive as our civic coupes...

My thoughts exactly. My plan is to mod the hell out of my 2k1. Then buy the last model year and transfer all of the mods into it. Then I'll either sell the 2k1 or keep it as a daily driver.

This impossible balance of power and economy has previously only been realizeable in Honda's D15B 3-stage VTEC first used on the previous generation EK3 (and the D17A on the current Civic
