    For all your paint needs, Hit up, The Bucky or call the number in my sig pic. Satisfaction guaranteed.

    Lowering springs just replace the stock springs on the stock struts. Coilover sleeves do the same, but you're able to adjust ride height.

    Car's not bad for a first. Enjoy it

    I would understand reliability... But why put in a good amount of money to mod a car to look good??? Never really seen a good looking lancer...

    And performace wise, how do you expect to make good power? Would be non cost efficient..Right?

    Good car... Yada yada...

    Dont waste money on trying to mod the car. Drive it, buy another car... Dump your money into something more efficient.

    isnt that the whole point.. There is no fun in stock? Unless your a honda owner...lol



    there was a guy with a boosted lance, using a evo kit...and it made good numbers. As far as looking good, thats all opinion based.

    Like a v6 mustang, pointless to mod. Great for girls though. Enjoy your payments...

    Not pointless if it's built to handle or has an engine swap. Same with this lancer.

    So you would buy one of these and do a very expensive engine/tranny/suspension swap instead of buying an evo ? Your sense makes none...

    Yeah....not my taste of car either...but neither is the prelude. It was my first......5 years ago that is...

    I would definately get the Evo wanna be spoiler off....dont know about dumping $$$ into it IMO, but that is all you. Depends on how much extra you have to spend.

    The REAL question is.....how old are you? Just turn 16 and get your license?

    who said you have to do all of that? im sure if he could afford and or wanted an evo he would get one. its like saying, why buy a civic hatch and put a k20 in it, when you could buy a mugen... ... it works both ways!

    Man, my first car was a V6 Auto Mustang ha but I loved it. It wasn't as fast as a GT but I had fun in it. I do enjoy the civic more but yeah, there's always a special place for your first car in your heart.. ha NO HOMO..

    BUT... there's nothing wrong with the lancer. Have fun, and just be smart with it. You'll be straight...

    I beg to differ. The lancer and the evo are two completely different cars. Only similarity is that body style lancer you have is the old evo 7 body style. Other than that, nothing else is the same.

    Different motors, transmissions, etc.

    But like I said in your other thread, it's not a bad car, just don't waste money on modding it. Make it look clean if you want, but you are not going fast on that thing unless you spend big money. Being that you are 18, i doubt you have a bunch of money.

    You should go for that same look in the other thread, that lancer was pretty clean.

    ..to be exact...I remember, a long long time ago, another lancer with a motor swap in it. I believe it handed out a few kills......

    what makes the accord so much more of a better car to put money into over a lancer. both cars meant to be driven from point A to point B.

    I agree with JITB... You do realize that you drive a 4 door family sedan, right? Some people could argue that modding something like an Accord is just as much of a waste... But because it's a Honda, you get a free pass from 90% of IA.
