That's another reason I was thinking about something newer. Don't get me wrong I loved my Civic, but it had a lot of little things that bugged me that I had to fix ASAP cause it couldn't stand it. I put on new suspension, new wheels and tires (two times), it had small dings on it. I think I'd be happier if I did end up with another Civic if it was "bought not built". I mean not completely, but just a clean car that didn't need anything done right away.

I am never satisfied because nothing fits my criteria 100%.
My s2000 was a looker but didnt have torque even with a turbo and I wasnt crazy about handling, then my evo had loads of torque and handling but just didnt have the sexy sport car lines I was craving, then the soarer had the lines and powerplant I really liked but it handled like a fukin 60's caddilac and that bothered me....now to the lotus...
Has the classic sports car look I love, Handles like no other but its not turbo and could be faster. When the fuck am I gonna be satisfied? Honestly I dont think I ever will be saitisfied unless I have a ferrari or a rx-7 with a 2jz in it
or I think I would be satisfied with a s2000 with a 2jz or a lotus with 4g63 in it...hahah that will never happen

Re: I'd like some serious opinons.
I think it's just that every vehicle that I've had after my TA stood no chance in topping what it was. It wasn't a beast in a straight line, but it could get out of it's own way and in stock form they handle pretty good. I sold it cause I figured it wasn't the best thing to be 20 at the time with a 18K car.
The car was just a refined vehicle...yes I said a Trans Am was a refine vehicle.
It was fully loaded, so power everything, leather, t-tops, 6 speed, mint inside and had 2 TINY dings outside. The thing was pretty much pristine and I just haven't had a car that has lived up to that ever since.
Sure I could take a build a Honda to blow it's doors off in a straight line, but FWD is gay. I mean for fuck's sake I raced an LS/VTEC Integra with an SC61 on the highway and we were dead even and the only thing I had was exhaust. Fuck I need another LS1 I just can't get one right now.

Random hi-jack. I think I saw you in Portsmouth heading to Blanchards tire or something like that... Looked like you, in a white echo, with a stock or modifed sticker on the left side. (I only remember you, from the drag meet b/c of your plate.)
If you want RWD get it, if you want FWD get a Honda. B16a hatches are fun

Consider yourself lucky that you have a car that fulfills your needs and doesnt cost as much as a house

I dunno why, but even never seeing you or that car in person there was something about it and I actually thought it was you. I like it. Tell him to sell it to me.

Re: I'd like some serious opinions.
I did. 
Sorry man I don't like MKIII's unless there's a ton of money dumped into them we're they're just ridiculous and the only Supra I'd ever dump money into would be an MKIV.
