You and me both.

Used cars don't count :) I'd take a used ZX3 for $9000 over the $13,000 taurus. Besides, try cramming a 25" TV still in the box inside of a taurus.

Can't do it. Neener neener!! :p

Hatchbacks are cool! :cool:

Hee hee - I used to own an Accord V-6 (1998 EX) and that thing could not run in the 12s with a turbo the size of a basketball. FWD + relatively heavy car + conservatively-configured automatic = bland driving.

Someone who has put over $7000 into their engine to get an Accord into 12's wouldn't ask people on AT should he get performance tires and rims. Please. Oh and I think you mean 12's in the 1/8 mile, not the 1/4 :p haha

Focus SVT sucks. You shouldn't buy a Focus until Ford brings out the Focus Cosworth. Now that's a good car :)

I don't care to see it. Safety is just another fgt net racer.

And there isn't a steep enough hill.. you'd have to drop the car out of a plane :p

Hey, after you drive the Civic Si, go drive a base Acura RSX (5 speed, of course) and see how the two compare. I'm betting the RSX would be just as fun, with more features, and a similar market price.

The RSX-S is going for quite a bit more in this area... last time I went to take one out, they turned me down. I was like WTF??

There are so many yuppies in this town that pay ++ over sticker price that it makes me sick.
