    Default HONDA's

    I'm not hating on Honda's, but don't you guys get tired of modding the same car as 95% of other tuners? And don't you get tired of owning the most played out car ever, the Honda civic? And don't you hate worrying about whether or not you car's going to get stolen every time you go to the mall of ga?

    I know this is going to piss people off, but I'm not trying to talk ****, I just had to throw this out there.......

    Maybe it's just me...

    if a thief wants a car they will take anything not just a honda but most of the honda's gettin stolen don't have alarms.

    The scene didn't explode until young cats out of Cali started tuning civics. Back then (early 90's), it was pretty much older guys and the aftermarket industry was virtually nonexistent.

    Very true. Many-a automotive journalist have made that statement in many-a respected automotive magazines.

    im just playing with yall. i like other makers but i think honda puts more pride and thought into there product. which is one reason why some many things crossover between the models. HypnoToa the car looks good.

    Default hmm

    Why there are so many Honda's?
    *VTEC!
    *Saves gas
    *Ease of modifying it & tuning it.
    *Cheap cars
    *One of the best selling cars around and the technology is increasing.
    *Honda's last hella long.
    *So many different motors & routes you can choose from when buying a certain Honda.

    For all the Honda owners; get a bad ass alarm!

    Only Honda's I'd get would be a s2k...or a mean looking EK

    95% of other tuners? Show me where you get your numbers from.

    I'm thinking that the most played out car EVER is not the Civic, it wasn't really modded extensively until the 1988 year models. Mustang maybe?

    Any modded vehicle can be stolen - however, it is definitely Hondas "day" as far as thefts go (sadly). Most of the thefts I see can be prevented, it's just people that want to look good 1st and care about security 2nd. And honestly yes it does suck to have one of the most complete EG hatches in the metro and it's been sitting in Griffin in storage for over 2 years. In my case that's bc i have moved on to modding my other projects, NOT b/c I think my hatch will get lifted - it WILL take a tow-rig to get my EG home if I take it out - no doubt about it.

    ANY car that sticks out w/ wheels/electronics will catch the eye of a thief, and any car can get taken... not just H badge stuff.

    But congrats on a semi-retarded thread.

    Everyone loves his/her own brand, and in SOME cases they'd look down on other brands.

    IMO, no car is played out b/c manufacturers make variations of the same car (if that car is 'hot') to keep things interesting.

    Mine's the red one.
