sda2mike

don't really want to but sometimes ya gotta...middle son needs a car...my 96 civic has 197k and runs like 300k will be no big deal...i'm leasing this new one, if i like it in 3 yrs and it's reasonable i'll buy it...anyway, that's my story

Congrats.......throw some DUBs on it.

sda2mike

not sure what dubs are:rolleyes: i'll keep it stock..i ordered silver to stay under the radar;) i really wanted a 2005 s2000, but wtf..now i can still go to home depot and fit my purchases in the car..

Hopefully, your boy will let you drive the new one from time-to-time!

That S2000 is a sweet little ride. Wouldn't mind getting my hands on one myself. Congrats on the civic.

Nice. 201 horsepower in a civic will be a treat.

Congrats.

sda2mike

thanks...it's got soul...it's not a killer like my modded 98 z28 was..that was kinda monstrous when it was boogie-time...this one is quick and well-balanced...AND quiet!

devani

congrats!!! i certainly enjoy 09 SI sedan as well....

sda2mike

thanks devani! does yours 'hold revs'? what i mean is if i rev up to 4-5k and clutch like i'm shifting, the revs stay up there...kinda wierd...maybe it's to keep it in the vtec range?

Congrats on your new car and good luck! My wife purchased a 2012 CRV last year (4 cyl) and it's been a good car.

Good luck on your new ride!

Yup, rev-hang....Honda put that in so that when you release the gas pedal, the gas inside the engine burns to reduce emission....Alot of people put Flashpro just to get rid of rev-hang....

sda2mike

crafty little devils! gotta look into this flash pro..stock makes me look like a sloppy stick handler;)
