I'm putting 20% tint on the Camaro for just that reason...makes it easier to ignore the dumbasses that can't be near the car on the road without wanting to "race."

My wife wants a new Civic....we're giving her 2006 to my daughter.

Nope, it was bone stock. It was the cheap model with no power locks, power windows too. There was nothing on that car that said rice besides the civic badge.

How to upset your friends as a Civic owner

Upset your White friends - Do not attach type R sticker, fart can and intake
Upset your Asian friends - Do not attach type R sticker, fart can, intake and do not replace seats
Upset your Hispanic friends - Do not attach type R sticker, fart can, intake, don't replace seats and do not install lowering links
Upset your Black friends - Do not replace wheels. leave stereo stock.

^ if you can't afford new seats, race-look seatbelt sleeves will suffice

I used to twitch at the bs to justify it.

"Those seatbelts be biting into my skin yo...I put those on for comfort and shit."

My favorite is sitting at a light and have some clown in a riced out heap standing on the gas making that crazy gazoo noise.....just dying for some attention.

I can't help but laugh and think about how, when I was a kid, my friends and I would clothes pin a piece of cardboard to on the frame of our bicycles so it would slap against the spokes as we rode....make some noise...feel like we were going FAST.

Based on personal experiences, I would disagree with it not being a good economy car; my wife's Civic was a great little car for what it was. And my '89 CRX Si I had (essentially a Civic) was pretty much bullet proof. I was just about to turn 200,000 trouble-free miles when I got T-boned in that car 12 years ago. Other than normal maintenance, neither car had a problem. Both had excellent fuel economy. Ergonomics were good (not great, but good). Interior quality was good. Fit and finish of body panels was good.
