Hmm.
I took his word for it that it was a swap because I couldn't have cared what was in it. Reason being.. its a civic, regardless of series.
Those type R 'tegs though..

A kid around here has a b18c type r engine I swapped into a hatch and it's pretty quick. Mostly on the account at how light it is

The Honda Civic will be getting turbos, but they won't be here in the US yet. I do respect Honda and its brand... But I don't respect the people who go over board with it. Those are the people that kill it. I like my fair share of Hondas just like I like my fair share of Balts. People always hate on Honda but they do build an awesome motor that runs great and can out last almost anything. That's what they are in the game for, reliability. Not for racing.

I find there are a lot of people that side with me about hating the people that drive Hondas versus Honda its actual self cause those are the people who destroy it for the rest of us.

I wish there was a like option. I find that the majority of children get these Cobalt's and are worse that Ricers. I bought mine back in 2009 with my own money and I worked hard to pay it off. It's the lack of respect that these children have. No morals, this generation is garbage. Lol. I always have and always will have the utmost respect for Honda as a manufacturer.

Back in the day when my car was stock, I walked all over an 8th gen....

I'm starting to like the newer ones with the larger motor. Seems like the additional torque they needed for years will make the car a lot more fun.

my daughter's 2012 civic is not a race car. but at 80 on the hwy that little car get's nearly 50 mpg. Not fast as i said. But fun to drive. The only thing i hate about it is road noise. that something they have had for a long time! At 110 it sounds like the tires are coming thru the body.

A friend of mine has a 4 door Civic Si, it really is fun to drive. It's definitely not fast but really it handles well and loves to rev.
