A Garage Divided.

Here is a pic of my car and my brothers. He has a 06 si and it has the navigation package. Ive rode in his car and I dont like it. The suspension is harsh and he has to shift like a thousand times a minute because of the six speed. Me and him are two totally different people as you can tell.

I love the looks of the SI. Looks different than most cars on the market. However I like TQ and HP more so cobalt ss/sc FTW !

ROFL... I just couldnt get over how stiff his suspension was. And he had to shift to much for me. I sit in rush hour traffic in the morning after working 11 hours a day. Thats why it would be a bitch to shift that much.

Yeah the civic is ok but its down about 65ft-lbs of tq and gives up 20-25whp to the cobalt, so i would still stick with my car....... oh and p.s: our silver looks nicer!!!

also, question-----> why does everyone have "driver mod" listed in their mods and wtf is it? thanks

speaking of Civics...I sat in a new one the other day for the first time. I HATED IT!!!

Very clausterphobic and poor visibility. I sat in my Cobalt and it was very open and airy feeling with much better sight lines.

well, the cobalt sucks, because it has enough torque that you don't have to downshift as much... so it's not a fun car...

There not to easy to find where I live. And he wanted the navigation package so that made it even more difficult. The day it was unloaded off the truck he went and bought it.
