Actually I don't know why you hate honda lovers... Civics are Accords are actually cheap. You complain how they are all crappy and stuff but its not the outside. Some civics have V-Tec and most of all their about 2.0 - 2.4 liters. Which means lesser gas than your EXPENSIVE CARS such as your dam BMW's BENZ that you want just because of brand name that are about 3.0-3.8 liters and will cost you atleast like 30 everyday and just swallows the gas without even tasting it.

oh wow....2-2.4 liters...woopie. the French and other countries think we should all just be going around in little sport compacts and shit. F the French and F anyone who thinks that.

My 4.0L V8 gets about 13mpg in the city since thats the only driving i really do. i make plenty enough money to cover gas so i dont give a crap. and i run premium (as required for my car) too. i race my car, i go WOT a lot and i drive hard. but i also make sure my car can keep up with my demands.

just did a tranny pan drop & refill last week. been running lots better, no more slipping. also filled mobil 1 full synthetic last week too.

lmao! My bros friend used to have a type- R until he crashed it and droped the engine into into a civic he bought. I have to addmit, its fast for what it is. BUUUUT! my bro was test driving it on the freeway, he gave it WOT ( wide open trottle ) and it went but got killed by this little gurl driving her S8.

Plus I see ppl spending 20,000 - 25,000 on a new RSX when the could just get a supra, OR you dont even have to do that, you just get an S13 or S14 and drop a sr20det in there or an RB-25. and WAAA LAA. Plus you would spend 10,000 max.


but hondas are good city cars I have to say. They will get you to point A to B but when it comes to performance, they just dont cut it for me =[

at least my car dont sound like a weed wacker, lmfao. also my V8 would kill your car on highway passing. went from 60-80 in 3 seconds today passing some dumb blonde that almost rear ended me.

my V8 makes 90% of its torque from 1700rpm-5800rpm

i have a honda civic but i dont think there the BEST cars

who cares what your car sounds like, friggin NASCAR cars are loud as f*** but i give them props for easily going 200mph.

Oh, sound of power...listen to you. ill give ya the sound of power , ricer boy

Sure you will, Mr. Ignorant

http://www.sitaliano.com/110mph.wmv

http://www.sitaliano.com/RazziOlds.wmv - mom drove car in middle of vid - dont ask why

I hear something, but i dont see squat.

read post again, dipshit i modified it

your first one i saw nothing

yuor second one i saw nothing, too dark to see crap

Oh ,ok.....

http://www.sitaliano.com/RazziOlds.wmv

you see nothnig there, you need to have your eyes checked moron. Or get a LCD monitor

i was talking about the first time you posted, then modified it.

I've seen your mum driving, but what am i suppose to be impressed with is what i'm asking.

doesnt sound like a used honda civic with a fart can is what im saying. Turn up your speakers, if you evne have some. Or plug some headphones in. That, my friend, is the sound of power...tyvm.

http://www.sitaliano.com/MOV00018.MPG - - my good friends Aurora he drag races. its faster than mine, as he put way more money into it than i ever will

http://www.sitaliano.com/AuroraFun.mpeg

that's the sound of gas being wasted on a job that needs like 20 hp.

Hmm... I would only get a honda civic as a last resort.. Yay for Mazda Miata! :D lol

I think the RSX looks nice. I admit, I favor cars depending on how curvy they are and how modern and nice they look. Personally I don't care too much about all that fancy stuff.

Psh, gas prices are skyrocketing in California and by summer, I heard it's going to reach 3 bucks per gallon.

once you've driven an 84 toyota tercel that sputters when going up a 10 degree incline and can only top 30 MPH if going downhill, the honda civic has ample power. :-)

Not sure what you are referring to there.....my lawn tractor has 20hp.

Is it me or does his freinds aurora revving sound like a 350z? Maybe its me...

cars don't need much horsepower to cruise. if it's a small car, then 20 or so horsepower is all that's actually being used.

it's like using high octane gas; you only need it when accelerating.


your lawn tractor could probably be used to keep a light car at 70 MPH steady... it'd take more to get it that fast, but at that speed you don't really need those HPs anymore...

my motor takes premium fuel because of the high compression. when you run regular it rertards the timing and throws shit whack. in the later models like 99, it said for maximum performance use 91 octane,.

high octane is better for sudden acceleration, but for normal circumstances it preforms about the same as low octane gas.

well sudden acceleration is something i do a lot. I do WOT at least once a day

they are just freaking expensive, well at least some of them are.

My family has always owned Hondas and Acuras, but we bought a Seville STS in 2000. That car was crap! Domestic manufacturers still don't get it. Hell, my dad's 2004 TL could probably smoke all your cars despite being FWD. Thanks to a limited slip differention, turbocharger, cold air intake, and custom exhaust, his TL makes about 470HP. My mom's RL makes 300HP STOCK. That's only 3-less horsepower than GM's touted "Small Block" V8 found in GM's new FWD cars with 4-speed autos.

And hey auroradude,
My TSX 6-speed would accelerate on par with your Aurora, even when mine was stock.

you have dyno slips to prove all that power..lol, but from what you say your dad has under the hood i dont doubt it ;p

A V6, oh please. My Aurora would be blown away yse but not my dads car. 4.2L 400HP Jaguar S-Type R supercharged. Its RWD. does a 4 second 0-60 and has a top speed of 155. (we've taken it to 140). Also a lot better "luxury" car than that TL or RL, lmfao. Its so nice inside. You parents probably couldnt afford a sub 60k car anyway if they are driving Acura's (just call it a Honda) with chinsy interiors

nice effing jaguar, i have to give you that auroradude..................drool

Oh and dont forget, RCTennis newbie that Horsepower isnt everything.......a lot more to do with Torque. The RL only has 260 torque. 300HP doesnt do justice in this case..

WOW i didnt think anyone would be that freaking stupid to pay 43,000 for that car either. What a f'ing waste. For 43,000 i would get a 2003 Ford Mustang Cobra Convertible with 400HP and 420 lb-ft TQ stock. Just adding a Borla cat-back exhaust would bring that MF'er up to 410HP.

D00d. Accords are more compatible than Hondas are but yeah they suck. Hondas suck baaaaad.

-Phil-

Lol looks like someone needs to rake their yard... Bah you shoulda taken a side view too... So areodynamic I cant spell it gah

I dink hondas are pretty kule wunce u pimp it out wit sum rims and stuff lik dat
My Xanga

I drive a Honda but I'm not really a Honda fan, I prefer European cars...

hondas are so reliable what are you talking about.

Reliable yes, but no protection. Also the features on those cars are really weak in the 1997 model year compared to my car. The interiors in those hondas are such junk in 97, its pathetic. This is what my interior looks like:

nice, but nothing special.

honda's don't have special interiors either...

you can get a ferrari and a honda, and the ferrari's going to break down before the honda.

doens't mean the honda's better, but it does mean if you plan on driving 15.3 miles to work everyday as the only think you really use your car for, a honda's better for you.

I dink pplz that lik3 tis should get shot...

I like the Accord but dunno which brand is better for my first car Honda Or Toyota...

accord= honda.

hondas are better than toyotas

Yeah Sadolekic, but if you look at the things my interior has, not just the way it looks.

Electrochromic Rearview Mirror with Compass
Full automatic climate control with cabin air filtering and outside temp
Radio steering wheel controls
Homelink Garage Door Opener where the sunroof opener is
Driver information center (displays LOW COOLANT, HIGH ENG TEMP, things like that)

and tons more, nice stuff like that. excellent for its time

hmm... nice... but the beige isn't that great... black or grey would be better...

who in the world ever needs a compass, unless you ilve in the woods or something..

Radio steering, honda's have that also

Honelink garage door, you can have that installed if you want for cheap

Driver info center?..honda's have all that stuff near the speedometer

automatic climate control isnt really important..

it is quite nice. i'd like to have a compass in my car, because i know the location of things in my town by compass points

the climate control is nice, becuase you can set your temp. like with a house thermostat, instead of just 1, 2, 3, 4.

also them civics didnt have full leather seats standard either like mine did. also mine has both front and passenger full 8-way power seats, heated seats and power lumbar standard. OWNED.

your comparing a 15k car to a 36k car like mine was on the invoice. had bose stereo, 12 disc cd changer. sweet shit.

id rather have a tank and get shitty 15mpg then have a cardboard box that gets 45mpg.

well, i would have gotten the 15k car and modded it to death with the extra 21k... but i guess that's just me..

I don't hate Hondas but I don't love them either considering I don't really know anything about cars in that much detail........

Hondas are quite alrite, they're not too expensive and the quality is quite good too.

yea i'm with you on that, yea 21 k for a lil pow pow and some gadgets in an aurora..

you know what i can do w/ 21k to a civic

drop in a rebuilt 210hp type-r motor for 3k
drop in a turbo kit system for 3k bring it up 250 hp
port polish for 800, 260
upgrade suspension to skunk2 coilovers for 300
and many more..

hell i could add in all those features you love about your car for under 1000 i bet..



Civics may not haev leather seats, but integra GSR's and accords do. You keep saying civics are death traps, where are you getting this from. Are yuo just making this stuff up to prove a point or something; just because your car weighs a million tons and civics weigh little.

I know somebody who was killed in a Civic si. dont give me that garbage.

Accord's leather is "fake" leather. Haha. Or i assume you probably dont know cause you have never sat in "real" leatehr before. sigh.

but Anyway thats nice you would do 21k to a civic...real nice. More power to get yourself wrapped around a pole with.'

And no i am not making the shit up, its all true. Here is a full list of specs, from my Aurora Owners brochure that was in the glove compartment when i got it.
