Want to buy a $44K Civic?

HA-HA!!! A nice car I must say. But for that price they must be crazy.

 

I've never driven a type r, but I bet that thing would run with an STI.

I think most people just get hung up on the fact that it is, in fact, a civic.

 

i've driven a stock Si and I personally think it was faster than my WRX was stock.

 

:unamused:

Not really. Its lighter. Less drivetrain loss due to not having to drive 11ty billion extra components for 2 more wheels.

 

actually it is quite a bit faster than both the new sti and the evo x. hp/tq is not everything. with a lap time of 1:00.6 at Tsukuba Circuit it put both the evo x and the new sti to shame :wavey:

2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X : 1:06:46
and
2008 Subaru Impreza WRX STI : 1:05:95

raped.

 

Raped? Are you kidding?

It was tortured, raped, mangled, raped again, then murdered. 5+ seconds is super fast.

However, it is 5k more than STi and lacking AWD...not that I would never buy an 08 STi.

 

:barf::barf::barf:

 

The article also says it was on grooved slicks for that lap; Certainly wouldn't hurt the lap time. Either way its quick, not really 44k worth of quick IMO though

 

Do they only come in red? Cause I've seen a silver one that looks exactly like those

 

When I said "run with" I meant around a track. The Japanese don't really seem to care about straight line performance as much.

For my money I would certainly rather have an STI. I was just saying that when you add in the rarity factor its probably worth the asking price. Of course the STI could feasibly be your DD.

 

And a STI is just an Impreza

 

Though impreza > civic

 

wow, that things looks so much like the new evo lolol.

ANd LOL at the torque for that price.

 

For 92~07, YES. but 2008+, absofuckinglutely not.

 

id buy it....

if i was on crack and had 40k to blow.

 

Joon BOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

huh?? :squint:

 

exactly.

 

werd.

 

indeed.

 

right on. right on.

 

totally.

 

Bbq yes~!

 

Shower time. I'm out. :rofl:

 

i took a shower already. ha~!

 

well I just got done. HA!

 

well i just got done taking a dump so ... i gotta take another shower HA~!

 

hate it when it clings to your butt and cant quite get that clean feeling after you wipe.

 

oh and i hate it when toilet h2o splashes on your balls after you drop a log.

 

what the fuck?

 

exactly

 

you 2 girls 1 cup-ed your self? nice.

 

AHHAHAHAa....

 

...

i didnt treally like cup chicks...

 

talk about threadjack..

 

Lol, you are the one on crack! lol... That car would own a WRX and hang with an STi anyday of the week on a real track.

 

No you didn't. Mugen Type-RR is only in japan and all 500 were pre-sold.

 

The RR will hang, don't be skeered.

 

I'd like to see one of those Best Motoring videos with the cars on it, that would be cool. The Sti would win for sure but it would be fun to watch.

 

kinda like a str-4 still being a neon....... "even JESUS knows its still a neon"

 

Exactly...wether or not it is able to beat an STi or WRX or EVO or whatever is so far beyond the point...it is still a Honda...and I love Hondas...My first "fast" (to me) car was a honda...it was a 91 gs integra, and I loved it. Honda's new design is top notch, it blows away most cars on the road right now as far as orginalilty and asthetics go. It is pure japanese design, and they are beautiful. (look at GMs production version of the Volt to see the first copycat.)

But, unless we are talking about the S2000 or NSX, Hondas are not race cars...and I don't care how quick they are around a track.

 

excuses excuses :keke:

 

haha mustve been someone that wished his si was a mugen.

 

Only if I was some kind of bajillionaire.

Otherwise it's a really great car.

 

The Honda Integra Type-R was a race car and put Realtime racing on the map.
