Civic's? Anyone tired of them?

[Crazy Asian]

After seeing so many Civic's everyone one of them is identical. All crappy Rota's, Drag, OEM Craptastic rims, or Sportmax rims, with the same boring exterior look. Especially on IA, most civic's have passed down to each other like a ragged out whore. Can't you guys switch to something else? I mean yeah they are cheap to modify but why keep doing the same shit over and over again? Aren't you guys tired of have no torque or no power? Every time I go to car pics, 5 threads of my new car is a Civic. I dont want to go into 240's because most every 240s I know in GA is either in the hands of some teen kids who thinks he's a badass in a RWD car.

[Revmaynard]

lol

[-EnVus-]

hey hey now nothing wrong with a good clean civic but yeah they is a ass load of them.

[Crazy Asian]

i give props who do something drastic with their Civic's or older classic like for instance Rev's civic is okay but seeing the same egg looking or the coupe bodied over and over again it gets played out after a while.

[Black4DrEK]

Im soooooo tired of civics!!! OOOOOMMMMMGGGGG:blah:

[Revmaynard]

Only 5% of Civic's from 88-91 (4th gen) were wagons. lol But I see where you're coming from. I get tired of the same shit as well.

normally people get tired of things they have or own. how are you sick of something you don't have? a lot of civics are making more power and torque than you, but does it really matter though?

[quickdodge®]

That's not necessarily right, dude. I've never owned a 240 but I sure as hail tired of seeing that crap all over the place. I've never owned a Civic newer than 1983 and I can't stand the site of them. Few and far between are there nice looking ones, but that's a rarity these days. Later, QD.

I think this is the first time I have ever agreed with you

[Echonova]

I hate any car that doesn't have a vision behind it Civic or not.. Fixing up a car to "fit in" is dumb and you need to pick a new hobby. For instance, my car (while a 240) is being built the same way it would have been built in the 90's. Why? Because I think the early 90's were the last days of the automobile being truly a "driver's" car. At most you had ABS. No computers magically turning an average driver into Michael Schumacher with Active Yaw Control, Traction Control, Electronic Roll Mitigation, Dynamic Brake Control, Electronic Stability Control, Electronic brakeforce distribution etc etc etc... Foot, seat and ass was your stability control. Do I hate Civic's??? Most of them... Just as I hate most 240's or (dare I say) the mighty Poopra. They all look they same. But on the topic of Civics...

I like:
QD's Civic
'Purps Civic
Rev's Civic Wagon
RutRoe has a nice older wagon as well.

That's about all I can think of on here that I have seen.

[quickdodge®]

I think this is the first time I have ever agreed with you

A lot of people that lack common sense and the educational back ground I have disagree with me. No big deal really. Later, QD.

[quickdodge®]

For instance, my car (while a 240) is being built the same way it would have been built in the 90's.

And that would be cool. A 240 done up nice and tastefully is one that can be commended. I know yours will come up just as fresh as I'm trying to bring my Civic to. Later, QD.

[429bigblock]

there may be hundreds of 240s with the same exact set up, but i still love em! i shouldnt have sold my red one to my friend kyle back in the day! maybe one day i will accept what you are saying, but not yet its still too soon....

[j0nbunklah0m]

well im pretty sure any of the same car done up is going to look similar. civics just happen to be ideal, because the price and availability of parts

take it back.. take it back now!

[jdm>usdm]

Im tired of these kind of threads. "Im so sick of busted up Hondas slammed on rotas/stock rims, yada yada yada". In all honesty, I would rather see these kind of Hondas on the road over ones with outragesly huge body kits painted a neon green color to complement the orange LED underglow.

But with that said, yes, I know the style the OP is referring to is waaaaaaaaaay too played out. But if everyone hates it so much, why dont they get out there, buy a civic, and show everyone the way its supposed to be built, instead of just making threads on how they hate it so much? Start a movement, set the example.

Only 15 years old? Lolol. It took me 3 years to find a part 30 years old BNIB. Hours of Googling and searching only to find it about 10 minutes away from my house. So I know exactly what it's like. Later, QD.

[ash7]

the OP is on to something - however, the issue is not unique to civics. It eventually happens to every highly popular chassis in the hands of car freaks. In ten, perhaps, fifteen years from now, the Civic will take it's place in old mens garages across the country where their fathers Mustangs used to be.

it is a classic car.

The Lacetti is kinda old actually. The cars currently run in the BTCC and DTC are 2008 model cars from RML.

RML'S 2009 World Touring cars are Chevy Cruzes which have no alternative in America. No it is not a Malibu. It is closer to the size of a Cobalt but totally different frame.

To each their own opinion but to me man it's like eating the same food over and over again. It gets tiring and dull after a while. Do something fresh and go get something else. Seriously.

use some common sense. i dont think thats the cars he's talking about..... and it takes no money to make a civic very fast. $6,000 and you're RUNNIN pretty much 95% of the cars on the road today

ARE YOU SERIOUS? You make zero sense. The real question is why finance something thats way overpriced, especially when you can OWN a vehicle. And 99% of the new cars you buy have a warranty that doesnt fucking last but 36k miles. you finance the damn thing for 5 years and lose your warranty before 2 years. use logic, how does that add up? if it messes up, you have to fix it AND make that shitty payment, 4 a car that is most likely no longer a "nice" car..... and i assure you. put 1/4 of the money you paid for that car in my pocket and see what happens to your "rwd".

Even if he did bust out a 500wtq car you'll go on about how that said car burns more gas than your Honda, is heavier, unreliable, etc.

Edit: I also have "Drag" wheels on the Corvette lol.

[Starrfire]

on his defense hyundai has a 10yr 100k mile warranty....

Only thing I can say is he is gonna need it.

I have 2 honda's. Does that mean that is all I like and love, hell no. I drove to Vengence racing up on highway 19 from around Gadsden Al in one of the Nastiest camaro's I've ever driven. And followed one even cooler. The #1 Hennessey 2010 Camaro. Look in Road & Track this month. You'll see it.

But driving this C5R powered camaro w/ better heads and cam and bigger throttle body made me appreciate, and loathe many things about my honda. you just can't beat over 500 whp and 500 whtq with a stick NA. It's so raw, so nasty, so un streetable and grouchy below 2k rpms. There just isn't anything like being able to stomp it in 4th gear and feel the tires get a little loose on the pavement going down the interstate.

But the downside of driving such a big nasty car is that the muscle car scene is FUCKING BORING. It is so many corvette's, which I would love to get my hands on; but no it's grandpa who just keeps it garaged and putts around in it, and then there are a whole lot of damn red necks. Only about 30 percent of the scene is even tolarable.

Sure Imports are weaker, mostly because of smaller engines and FWD, but I love both of mine. (truly I did feel like I was driving a go kart home after driving it).

A part of me burns for big nasty V8 power, but I have better things to do with my life now. I burned an entire tank of gas being easy on it there and back and had to fill up before I got back. RWD, V8 big block is amazing, Honda's are great, But Your ass is gay for even thinking your Hyundai is even in either of these categories.

G/L with the warranty, you are gonna need it:lmfao:

So what you're saying is that Hyundai is fail and everything about them is not great? I find it hard to believe but Hyundai so far on my car nothing is wrong. Nada. I put at least 8k on the motor nothing. My friend has the new Genesis Sedan and put at least 50k with no problems. But the real topic is the exterior, care to read my first post? I dont care about the power because either way both can produce an extreme amount but the thing is the exterior it's played out beyond necessary. I really didnt care about it but now a days it's pretty much annoying. I posted a pic of lightly modified Genesis, and I've looked all around for Honda Civic that can surpass that pic nothing Im sorry.

[Starrfire]

Different strokes for different folks, but I wouldn't buy a car known for their faulty everything, and expecially a first gen one at that. Let the recalls and rotting of cheap plastic begin. you've obviously never taken lots of hyundai's apart. I guarantee you they are built cheap as hell. You know why, because i've seen them inside to the bare stripped down car, then reassembled. Honda's aren't nearly as cheaply made; I can assure you the quality of parts all around doesn't compare.

[TSiFTW]

So what you're saying is that Hyundai is fail and everything about them is not great? I find it hard to believe but Hyundai so far on my car nothing is wrong. Nada. I put at least 8k on the motor nothing. My friend has the new Genesis Sedan and put at least 50k with no problems. But the real topic is the exterior, care to read my first post? I dont care about the power because either way both can produce an extreme amount but the thing is the exterior it's played out beyond necessary. I really didnt care about it but now a days it's pretty much annoying. I posted a pic of lightly modified Genesis, and I've looked all around for Honda Civic that can surpass that pic nothing Im sorry.


I understand your point, but to go on the whole over done played out thing, hate to say it but the 350z, G35, and so on beat you to that "look".

Hmm yeah I agree to a degree. See the thing is then why not sell the Civic and at LEAST buy one of those instead buying the same car, the same parts again, and label it "my new car with new parts." I've saw it so many times on this forum alone and I wonder, dont you get tired? I mean VTEC is all great but you're just floating amongst the seas and hordes of ricers and non ricers. You all look the same.

[Starrfire]

^^^As soon to be you are as well jaded just like every car that isn't new. Having the latest thing only means one thing truly, more debt than its worth, and money wasted.

Debt? What debt? I have like 3 1/2 more years to pay this car. Money wasted? The market for performance and looks just started for the Genesis. Either way this is my opinion and you can believe in yours.

Yeah, I totally understand your point. I been saying this shit forever. Thing is that no one hardly ever does custom work to their cars anymore, so pretty much everything on every type of car will become monotonous.

[VooDooXII]

Yea I don't usually see anything special in the way of Civics. There's a black and gold one on here which looks really good...but again, I'm never taken by most of the Civics on this website.

That debt.

[Crazy Asian]

That debt.

I'd rather have some sort of debt then drive the same used car that everyone has over and over again.

[Starrfire]

Well you'll soon be in that category by the time it's paid off. There is no "next big thing" because it is all just copying the past anyways and something someone else whether you choose to acknowledge it or not. It's been done, some more than others.

[40th GT]

Yep. As long as the car you're driving is/was mass produced at some point, it's gonna be as unique as the one next to it.
:goodjob:

[bdydrpdmazda]

there are so many rediculous posts in this thread. Everybody preaching about debt and owning their car because its cheap. The money I put on my STi payment every month is the best money I spend. Every time I drive my completely stock car I have the time of my life just like it was the first time i drove it. Sure I could go without that car payment every month and drive what everybody else is driving so I would have more money to waste on beer and things like that but to me, a car is an investment so I might as well invest my money in exactly what I want.


And the Genesis is the shit, those things have so much potential. Hyundai's quality has really come up since their popularity has.

Exactly! If they took the money they dropped into there Civics they could own a pretty nice vehicle. If you don't make enough money at all then stick with your civics and leave them the fuck alone, I came this (---) close to buying a Civic recently and I'm so glad I changed my mind. I believe a car should be the complete package. Looks, reliability, handling, and overall build quality are very important to me. FWD just does not cut it for anything with real power.

[hybrid90accord]

i own a honda 91 accord and a 07 acura Tl and i love honda but hate 80% of the civic's in atlanta, because most do nothing to seperate themself from the rest. I mean if you have a stock civic with cheap ass rota wheels and changes engine bay color, a b16 or whatever swap and a drop it 30" on the ground its like your the king and " oh its so fuchin clean and badass". I went to florida on vacation and saw a whole different type of scene and tuners down there so maybe its not that im tired of civic im just tired of the civic tuning scene in GA. I saw my first V6 civic swap while i was down there in florida. Yes there a few in GA that are way above average but most just arent and that just being 100.

Civic vs. "rwd"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwGlVBnbWL0

cliffnotes:
Civic loses by a hair with its rear brakes glowing.
Yeah in a straightline, I guess I like driving corners and not just drags. I owned a civic and took pushed it to its limits at Road A and the shit just doenst cut it. Its not completely horrible but RWD is so much better for both cornering and drag. The point is not that the Honda engines suck, its the car itself sucks.

[On_Her_Face]

Hahah my bad. LOL. I meant the other type of Drag rims. The ones that are red or pink or in those gay colors......

No I have gold drag wheels on my Acura and "drag" wheels on my Corvette.

i hope you didnt say your car is an investment. do you know what an investment is? since ppl on here don't like to use google. i will help you out.

"The purchase of a financial product or other item of value with an expectation of favorable future returns. In general terms, investment means the use money in the hope of making more money."

Do you really think you arent gonna lose $10k+ when you pay off that car? You call that an investment? Use your head. I'm not saying you should run and buy a old civic. but I think what a lot of ppl in this thread are saying is that you are losing money, and gloating about it. doesnt make sense.

I highlighted the part that Honda will never have no matter how much money you spend.

wrong ,hondas with sohc's have passed that mark long ago and for not as much money as you might think,hondas can make big power too. 551whp/355tq @ 25psi believe it...

this car later went on to make 608whp with stock sleeves and a budget bottom end build eagle rods and vitaras no block guard.

its been this way since the first car nut drew a set of flames on his car with a can of house paint back in tha day when my grandpa was a hot rodder.....

I liked them when I was like 15-16. Growing up a little, I appreciate nicer cars...and a Civic, no matter how modified, is still a Civic. I don't understand why someone would swap motors, turbo, all just to break 14's in a quarter mile. That's not fast. Why not buy a faster car to start out with?

Note that I'm not speaking anything about my car or how cool it is... I know it's "just another Z" :D and I know it's slow and I know it handles like shit etc etc haha

to help you understand the performance mod thing,for me it was about the challenge,easy to build a big fast v8 or v6 but when you build a 4cyl that will eat a v8's ass for dinner well thats something to be proud of.

i got bored with 350's and 302's and 455's :D hondas challenged me to me they are still like little toys kinda funny,when you open he hood and see a sohc killa,there is just something about being the underdog and knowing your gonna win the fight. and break 14's we did that shit 10 years ago there are sohc's runnin 9's man ;)

You know what I meant, lol. I just think it makes more sense to start out with a faster car, and mod it from there... a sub-10 second car is hard to get no matter what you start out with (for the most part)

Im not gloating aboot anything, And by investment I didnt mean that I was gonna sell my car for twice what I paid for it in ten years. I meant its something that I am putting alot of money into, therefore I might as well put my money into something thats fun to drive each and everytime I get behind the wheel. Its also something that Im not gonna see ten of everytime I go to the nearest gas station. I dont wanna drive a POS for the rest of my life and once my car is paid for it is mine forever.

Thanks bro! I just didn't want to perpetuate the stereotype of all Z owners thinking their car is the best car on the planet and everything else is beneath them. I do see what you're saying, BUT I still think if you wanna make something your own why not start with a base nobody else has?

[Franco Tirador]

im tired of civics and integras, some cats act like their civics are better than any car on the road, may reason why i dont like them is the reason why most people like them, yeah they are lightweight and get great gas milage but that's because they dont have much structure, i know of a couple of people that have died cause the civic they were in did not protect them, how could it protect them, i would rock one of the newer ones cause they are heavier, i was in a bad accident in my 93 accord and i walked away with minor scratches, if i were in a civic, i would not be here or i would be crippled for sure, but then again to each .... their own

[EJdm]

i dont hate civics but that is kinda true civics are everywhere!!!!!!! i own a civic too but i would like to start owning old skool toyotas!!!!!!!! anywase there are some real nice and clean civics out there though...civic will never go away...

don't call it cheap because i did work for it

i like my unique civic. Executed to my own taste and a great daily driver. Just wish it wasn't on the top 10 list of stolen cars. Civics are snatched like no tomm. in GA. Good thing is, if I ever need a part i can be sure it's available for a price......

ja ja Im madd late on this post but... Not fond if Civics there are 3.2 million here in warner robins....the children here draw on their civics put exhausts that only attract the attention of retards and NEON... ja ja i raced my friends Mercury van againt some 16 year old ja ja needless to say he lost..... Im a nissan fan specifically the s13.... I am helping a friend on a 2jz swap its coming along fuckin right... I think he will be one of the few 2jz s13's in mid ga. Its gonna be primarily a DD (daily Drifter) welded Diff Aluminum Driveshaft... the works.... the thered is on here its called my 2jz s13 build... check out the work

I completely agree. Everything has been done to all other chassis. Whenever a new trend comes along with the Civics they are pretty damn stupid. Mismatch engine bays and green rotas or gram lights still are stupid to do to a civic. In fact Rotas suck period.

[BluesClues]

I am not tired of mine. Being this is the first and only car I have ever owned and it's paid for, I am happy. Obviously I don't have it like everyone else and is able to switch up cars at will. Either way it goes, I don't dislike anyone's car even if there are a lot of civics and a lot of people fuck them up. I love and appreciate mine, at least I am fortunate to have a fucking car that I can do something with it.
