What do you think when you drive by an older gen civic?
Just wandering what goes through you fellas minds when you drive by an older gen civic? Plus do you guys stare at the 7th gen's just to get an idea of what your car looks like on the road too? hehe

and when I drive by a 7thgen I stare at it because I think it looks nicer then the 6thgen
But don't get me wrong I would take a 6thgen electron blue SI over a 7thgen anyday

maybe lol =)
i like 7thgen look better than 6thgen..
I like the 7th gen more than I like the 6th gen probably because I own a 7th gen. Yeah, whenever I see a 7thgen like mine I always check it out to see what our cars look like, and of course its hard not to resist lookin at your reflection when you pass by a building...is that vain? I don't care. I do like the tail lights on the 6th gen better though, ours look kinda cheezy in the back especially the lighting pattern it has when you turn them on at night, looks like two horseshoes...

Rep Power: 0 uncomfortable... Where did all the leg room go ?!!!! My girlfriend has a 99' and everytime I get in it, I feel cramped. 
edit: I filmed my car driving last week, just so I could see how my rims looked when they were spinning.... I was happy with the results, but my friend couldn't understand why I made him hold the camera for THAT.

Rep Power: 0 For the most part we can all smoke the older civics [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] Although I havn't seen any with turbo/supercharger around here, but The Si's are usually a different story.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG]
I like the older civics better actually just the Si. But I do look at other 7th gens, I find that more girls drive 7th gens (hot ones too) A turbo 5th gen only beat me by like 2.5 cars. I did a lot better then I expected. I thought he would have beat me by like 5 cars.

Rep Power: 0 I don't like the look of the older gens headlights, they just but me. I think the 7th gens just look so much better. Plus I work at a honda dealer and I drive the older ones all the time, they just don't have the same elegant feel of the 7th gens.

Rep Power: 0 I actually traded my 2k1 ex in for a 97 i found with low miles...why?...because i dont mind ripping it apart as much as a brand new car....my car payments and insurance are lower...and ive really grown to love the look of it.
As far as horse power goes...they seemed the same to me stock, but who knows....

Rep Power: 0 Whenever I see another 7thgen I alwasy wonder who drives it, and if they've done anything to it. It usually turns out to be some old lady, but that's because there's about 10 times as many sedans here than there are coupes. I did finally find someone else with a pimped sedan just last week. And yeah, I stare at my car all the time, I get honked at for swerving all the time. it's just such a sexy lookin ride ... 
Don't really look at the older civics much, unless the owner has done some work on it. Then I'll give it a glance [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
