Prime., I told you this before that I agree with this statement. Went from having a badass Jetta to having a Civic. Albeit a clean Civic, it's still a Civic.
But you know the disclaimer: you liking what you drive is that matters, yes? Later, QD.

FYI how is it a downgrade, when jettas are known for more issues than women and sports illustrated combined? ill take reliability
boostedb16
07-27-2011, 09:07 AM
I was going on looks and features that Jetta has over a dx civic. Like I said before, nothing wrong with the civic because I had a nice one too and my wife had a jetta. In this case I would have chose the jetta. I also know what having a car for a period of time and just want a change feels like too. To the op, nice civic and with seeing what you did with the jetta, I am sure this will be no different.
Sammich
07-27-2011, 10:20 AM
off of looks and not being so flooded like the civics are, i can understand that...

Like the other guy said, no one was talking about reliability. Although the way Prime. seemed to take care of his car, I don't think reliability would have been an issue.

sometimes even the person who takes care of their car in the best way wont have a reliable car. but i get what you're getting at.

07-29-2011, 09:02 PM
who 'rebarrels' wheels? and what is it exactly?!
I think some shop in California did then but I'm not sure. Its basically keeping the center of the wheel and welding on new barrels and lips.

Decided to clean up the look of the car a lot. Sold the Mugen lip and wing risers and pulled the rear lip. Got bigger lips for the RSs and also switched up the color. (Sorry for the crappy pictures)

Here's how they are on the car now. Definitely plan on going lower as well as some other cool stuff to come. Again, better pics will come soon.

Civic looks real clean man. My mom had a Jetta just like that, so I know why you wanted to go the civic. The computer on hers(the one in the dash) isn't working real well. We had to have the whole climate control thing replace a couple years back, the list goes on. Are you in school?
