Pics of my new ride [56k warning]

[Battle Pope]

Exterior:

Interior:

Yep. Standard issue iPod, NIN album, DS lite, chewing gum.

Some of the pics are blurry, but that's because it's a high-res camera and I get fidgety when trying to take pictures.

welp, leave it stock, you have a warranty.

welp, leave it stock, you have a warranty.

That's the plan - I can't leave it alone entirely though, I already have wheels on order.

what can you do? wheels/springs? maybe i/h/e at most?

 

[Battle Pope]

Yeah, I think springs and i/h/e would be okay. Probably nothing more though.

Looks sweet as hell

nice! hows the 68 foot deep dash?

 

[Battle Pope]

The dash actually isn't too bad. I expected it to be kind of annoying being able to potentially start a plantation with the square footage, but I don't even notice it.

I didn't buy the car for fast. I bought it so I could have something new, that gets good gas mileage, and that I wouldn't have to worry about any major maintenance at all for at least 2 years. I have my Z-car for fast.

does your knee hit the parking brake?? I havent had the chance to sit in one.. 6'0, 215 lbs, 34-36 waist.

 

[Battle Pope]

That pic is with the parking brake engaged. When you disengage it, it moves closer to the shifter so it's not in the way at all. My knees don't hit anything when driving. My right leg rests nicely on the center console which I like. I'm around 6' as well, and the interior feels very well proportioned to me. I have no headroom issues, and the seating area is very well designed. The backseat is small, but who are we kidding here, it's not a suburban.

k20z3 swap soon?

 

[Battle Pope]

Soon? lmao

If I want to go fast I'll spend the money putting a small block in my Z.

 

[BigJ]

I like. They're very comfy to drive, and the shift is butter sweet.

i love the new civics...they definitely dont feel like civics anymore.

 

[phunky.buddha]

Very nice purchase! Civics have come a long way in the last few generations.

 

[Seany-izzle]

im really starting to come around to them. and i really need to test drive an Si, i dont think i would be happy with the others. You know what, i probably wont be happy with whatever i choose haha.

 

[phunky.buddha]

I need to go flog on an Si sedan.

 

[Seany-izzle]

Yo, don't tell the dealer I told you, but check your headliner and your front door seal for a gap. Most of the time, no big deal, but sometimes you'll get a 2-3 mm gap, usually worse on the driver side. If you do, take it back to the dealer and have them replace your headliner.
