If he spent that same amount of money on his car that you spend on yours, his car could EASILY smoke yours. Just because you don't like Civics doesn't make them bad. Sure they're slow stock, but they can easily be made into 13 sec cars. Again, faster than yours.

It was FREE. And i can take that 23k I was supoosidly supposed to buy it with, and upgrade it. I just hate that MOST civic owners always wanna race your car, and they mostly lose. And then there an asshole about it.

And isn't the WRX AWD? Never seen an AWD civic before.

and yes, some of my reply's are unnecessary, sorry for that.

Like I said. They are made for fuel economy. Tell me when your car can get 38 mpg. Besides, they are fun little cars. Also great for beginners. Easy to mod, and nothing to complex about the setup they have. Sure they are slow, but it's what your into that counts. Yeah it's true that there are some civic drivers out there that are a*holes. but the are also WRX drivers who are too. Just because they own one they think they can beat every single car out there. There are plenty of drivers out there who think their car is the shit. Acura, Toyota, Mitsu., etc... Doesn't make everyone an A*hole. But I'm done arguing about this. I don't even know why I started. Maybe I should just get out of this. Well. late...

WRX drivers aren't a$$holes, until they swing through traffic. Civic drivers always want to race, its just stupid.

Probably a good thing you smoked that Civic good by the time you hit 115. If that Eagle Vision is like my recently departed Concorde (Totaled by a Civic no less!) then 115 is as fast as you will go because the Computer would have shutdown the engine on you causing some real embarassment.

Now if you found a way to make it go past the speed governor then I want to know what you did to it because judging on the way that Concorde was pulling when it did it to me, it definitely had enough grunt to bury the 120 MPH speedo if the Computer didn't intervene because the engine was only spinning about 4100 in overdrive and just starting to hit it's stride.

Yep, that is pretty much the case for the Vision, which I no longer own. I was pretty surprised that it managed 115, not only because I knew there was a governor, but the tires weren't balanced very well and the intake manifold gasket was leaking pretty badly.

However, after getting all that fixed, minus the governor. I found that 115MPH was about as fast as it would go with that pesky governor there with plenty of room on the tach to spare.

Where did you get your radar detector?

[CivRacer95]

I just bought mine at a Circuit City. You can pretty much find them at most electronic stores, sound system stores, and even auto parts stores. Late...
