bye bye camry

well i sold my camry for 3000. amd now i got a little hatch. a civic hatch got a 1.6L motor making 112 hp, instead of my 2.2L making 120 something. then again i am pretty stoked that i sold my car for that much, since a dealer offered me 500 bucks. yep, that's about it

Actually the 2.2 makes 133 hp....A MUCH higher improvement than ur 112. Stock civic is sloooooooooow....

I'd never get a civic. They do have lots of aftermarket support but i'd hate to have that ricer reputation. Everytime i see a modded civic, my first thought is, Its a ricer. But when i see other cars i debate a bit.

youll be lighter in the honda but you'll have less torque than in a camry. power is not everything. im guessing its non-vtec... meaning that its performance would prob remind me of non GT starlet... so yeh tune it, make it like all the others. fun fun fun. potentially yet another civic with a cannon exhaust and stickers of brands it doesnt have. its jus not my thing thats all.... and yes i know, i wont buy one. i love my car.

at least you got a good price on the cam.

Hey wait... I have a civic too... too bad it's not going to be ricey like my camry. LOL.

Tein Type Flex Coilovers, Cusco Strut tower bars, Tanabe sway bars, Bride Bucket seats, DC Sports short shifter, CF Hood and lip, RS-R exhaust, and GReddy Turbo kit w/ intercooler, and 15inch ROTA GAB lookalike wheels w/ Falken Azenis tires are my plans for my civic... hahahaha.

Yeah, have fun with your civic. It's a fun little tossaround car.

Hmm but when you have a 5s-fe and go against a CRX or any DOHC civic/integra, you'll get beat. Trust me. When I used to race around with my Camry in High school I got beat all the time.
