I read through your post a couple times, and came up a little confused on what you're trying to say. Are you saying Civics are good or bad? I think you're saying they're good, but underestimated/stereotyped too heavily as slow.
After putting i/h/e and a few shitty things on my DX, yeah I though Civics absolutely sucked no matter what you do to them. Now that I have a B-series with only intake and exhaust, my whole view on Civics has changed. My car won't bend space and time, but it definitly shows that Honda has some balls stacked in their panties. My friend has a turbo sohc EX and it flies too, faster than mine...

Getting a Civic to run 12's takes a lot of dough... about $7,500 minimum if my sources are correct. That is in addition to the cost of the Civic itself (about $5,000).
I agree, however, that it DOES take more skill to get a Civic to go faster that, say... an old Nova  It just costs 4X the $ to do so
