Annoying Little Civics

[VTECSAUCE]

An Si that was fast? Well....that 2006 Si has a K20, so it's 200hp from the factory, and weighs well under 3000lbs. Those cars respond VERY well to cheap mods like a Hondata reflash, headers, and an intake...I wouldn't ignore that completely, I wouldn't want to go against one in my ecoboost, a V6, or a pre-coyote GT, especially on an autox or roadcourse.

S2000 is 4 cyl, Integra Type R is 4 cyl, Acura RSX-S is 4cyl, all of which would likely destroy the majority of mustangs on the track.

Why do so many people need to pick sides? EVERY car company has made some great cars, and EVERY car company has made some utter shit.

This was the car I drove prior to my current GT. 2008 Honda Civic Si sedan (only about 60Lbs heavier than the coupe). In a straight line it would eat the s2000 easy but that isn't saying much lol. I had full Toda header back exhaust, 3.5" intake, flash pro, along with wheels, suspension etc. It made around 220whp NA with just a few bolt ons and a tune. That car was a blast to drive. It just needed a lot to maintain it and I just rolled over 100k miles, Honda doesn't have much to offer in the form of excitement anymore. Sorry in advance for the ricer rant. :ford:

The new Civic type-r or whatever garbage is no different. It looks like a Pontiac Aztek, powers the wrong wheels, and costs almost as much as fully loaded GT...

And we have just a Ford,seriously get real a Mustang regardless of motor isn't all that impressive. I love em but someone with an elitism attitude in this car is hilarious:lol:

Hmmm so a 435/400 car that runs 12's, has a 0-60 of about 4 seconds isn't fast? All for 40k? That's pretty good. I'm not acting like I'm driving a ferarri or a lambo, I'm just not acting like my 200 horsepower rice can is fast. ALMOST anything on the road I will beat and look good doing it.

Now this is of course my GT.

If you're in the eco, I could understand why you think that.

ALSO, if these imports are so great and fast. Why do YOU own a MUSTANG, not an Si or s2000. Simply because they are slow and you will be seen as a classic "ricer" driving it. There's no argument to it.

Congratulations, you know of a car, one single exception, that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and had an equal amount of time spent in research and development...

Do you want a cookie? Judging by your username, I'm guessing you get very excited when someone offers you a cookie.

The LMP1 Nissan is doing shite at Le Mans at the minute!! Can't corner worth a poop!!

There was a guy roaming the forums earlier who swore anything less than 1200RWHP was slow. Anything less than 900RWHP wasn't even drivable for him... or something like that. He seemed genuinely confused that some folks thought a Mustang was fast.

This sh*t is all relative man. I thought my Ecoboost was fast. I think this GT is really fast -- but I'm a noob used to driving garbage and econoboxes, like my wife's VW Sportwagen, or her previous Honda Civic, or even a V6 pickup truck. Slow, slow.

If you drive a '15 Mustang (doesn't even matter which motor), you're faster than most of the crap on the road. That's a fact. Prolly 90th percentile or higher, even in the 3.7 V6. Ain't elitist to say so. Whether or not that's fast enough for YOU personally, is another matter entirely.

Exactly, Its all relative. Drive what you like and enjoy. I just don't understand the hate. This ignorant crap is as bad as racism lol. I completely understand having a preference whether its a v8, 4 cylinder, rotary, boosted, etc and I know this is a passion for a lot of ppl. What I don't get is the narrow minded pov that you are superior to everyone else over a mass produced vessel for transportation. The car you drive is what was best for your preferences and your wallet. I know there are biased dipshits on every forum and in every car group. I guess I just have the narrow mind because I can't understand them lol
