I'm with you man. I think the point is that you can't make a blanket statement that all xxxx cars are slow and aren't worth modifying or trying to make fast. It's usually the people that say this that get flamed the most.
I know for a fact there are several 700+whp street-driven civics in my area alone. I know there are a lot of ****box civics out there, mostly because they are cheap as hell and there are TONS of parts for them... but there are a few legitimately fast ones too. You never know what you might get smoked by!

WTF is going on around here? Now people question Honda kills and talk about how H22 Blah,blah,blah will kill a Mustang.The S/S section it seems is quickly becoming a Mustang hate fest and a love fest for everything else.Trust me,I know there are fast Hondas out there,and I can respect them,but I see a hell of alot more of the slow side of things,I work with a few honda folks,and they talk all this junk about B16 this,JDM that,and going to the street races and beating this that and the other.Well the sad fact of the matter is my fuggin slowbalt will kill every one of them,and I hardly consider it a fast car.But I do realize these guys are ricers,not tuners,BIG DIFFERENCE.I'm pretty much surrounded by them,so I just keep my mouth shut and try not to laugh when they start talking crap,trust me sometimes it's hard.
