To each their own and show respect. I dont like the kind of reputation we're gonna get if we keep this up, as being stuck up and think our cars are gods.. lets show some class please!!

I actually like civics a lot, especially the new one. they are great for the price range, looks great, drives great, and has great fuel economy. saying civics arnt as nice as G35 is hardly the same as saying I dont like civics? 
but that's what i thought when i read your first post.
i am not putting words in your mouth lol...just wondering what you are thinking about civic in general

. consider that it is a three lane road and there is traffic on all three lanes so theres not much room to pick up speed. Finally we get to a traffic light and i get on the far right lane and he gets behind me after he flashes his lights twice the light nurns green and i gas it, bi third gear i was probably about six cars ahead of him 
so then i slow down for him to cath up and from a roll at about 40mph we take off (me on third gear) and the civic just get pulling away from me like like i was applying the brakes
. for the smell his car gave and the instant power he gained he must have been juicing cuz theres no way he would have taken me just with a turbo. i need FI.

At 40mph on 3rd gear you're at about 3k rpm. Thats kinda low. I had a friend with a jdm type r engine in his 93 hatch. and from the line he got me by like 6 cars.... then i passed him as i hit 3rd gear going about 90+. But then I raced a turbo'd civic with LS motor and got smoked really bad. Thats why you don't race civics JESUS!!! loooool

jesus won by 6 cars at first, then loose that badly. it seems he was spraying to me. otherwise even if the civic was not launched correctly, if it can beat jesus that badly on the 2nd run, the first run should have been a lot closer. im sure a lot of turbo civics dosnt need to spray to beat a G, but in this case, arjunz made a very logical assumption based on jesus' description

civic's are still a POS car. yes i can say that b/c i paid more and got more. i can take a john deere tractor and mod it w/ $$ to beat Mase's Evo...but does that mean it should get props?? no, b/c anybody can do it and its been done over and over.
A civic is a civic and G is a G. Fact of the matter is the civic is for the man/woman who cant afford a G. And I bet 10:1 the guy complaining or bitching about 'dont put down civic drivers' probably used to be one or probably was a member of ricerhonda.com
i am not cocky or think i am god b/c i drive a G. but any body can tell you the G is a nicer car and if you had your choice (FREE) the man/woman would always choose the G....

one of my lawyer friends makes close to 200k a year in NYC and drives a civic, he can easily get a ferrari if he wants to, but he likes the civic because its a well made car... and yeah, hes a jew lol
if you know who Van Gundy is, (coach for the huston rockets) he drives a civic despite making millions a year. and yeah hes a jew too lol... coincidental eh?

what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I've ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response was there anything that could even be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul!
Seriously though come on!
If ANYONE can mod a tractor that beats an Evo does this mean that ANYONE who drives a Civic can mod it to beat anything else on the road?
As far as others "bitching about don’t put down civic drivers" it seems to me that you've brought yourself down to their level with this "bitchy" post.
Were you beaten by a POS before and this thread just hit your sore spot? You rambled like you have some pent up anger. Calm down man because really, it will be OK.

Man I leave you in charge of NA cars and you get beat by a CIVIC!!!! LOL...that's it I'm coming back......yeah right it's still in the 80's here!! LOL
All good though, some of them are just motor shells........all motor and nothing else. With that exhaust, it won't be long before his car is towed for emissions.
