your original question was, I believe: "why do you all buy/have those [insert evil statement] civics?"

I didn't buy mine for speed, for looks, or for tunability. I bought mine cuz the sucker was CHEAP! I still havn't spent the 8,500 dollars its worth yet and I've got mods (expensive one's) all over the car. No it can't beat a mustang to 60, but I have a website that shows a civic EX beats a mustang GT in quarter mile times. (civic 16.8 sec., 'stang ~17.2). now, I know there are WAY too many Civics on the road, and I feel kinda like I've got what everyone else has too, and it kinda sucks, but they are so much better cars than Nissan or anything else besides VW's that you would have to buy 2-3 of them in the span that you have a civic. Civics last 300,000 miles easy. You'd have to get a new Nissan every 100,000-200,000. That's why there are so many, they take so long before they get scrapped that they build up on the roads. Honda's also FEEL better than other cars. My civic feels like it was ment to be raced around. Other cars, well, Don't.

But it's mostly all opinions, so continue arguing if you wish, I don't see the point. I just answered your question, that's all.
