Alright...

Today I drove my friend's ricer 2001 civic, with the euro lights and stuff... but:

It has the new AEM v2 intake (we put it in today), an aftermarket exhaust, a short shifter, some 17''s... Let me tell you, it was actually fun to drive! I actually like the fact that the friction point is lower than on our cars... RPMS go up all the way to 7000+...

Am I sick? Or is that car fun to drive?

yup your sick.. lol. Yeah my buddy had a 2002 civic si, bone stock though and I had a blast driving it, nice throttle response and it was pretty fun along curves. :)

Si's are very nice.. get above 300 HP easy with what turbo to... they have the dual cams or w/e :D

I agree...... that's the only thing I don't like about the newer Si. Unfortunately it's pretty important. I'd rather just have it down on the floor in a normal fashion. It's almost as annoying as the Scions with the speedometer/tach in the middle of the dash. Yuck.

My only beef with the new Si: it looks like someone left an Odyssey in the dryer too long.
