    Im back into a Honda!

    I dont post here too often any more, but still lurk around once and a while. I figured id post up some pictures of my new car. Back in September I traded in my Scion tc for a 2012 Civic SI. The Scion was a fun car, but I was getting sick of having a two door, plus I have car ADD Ive already put about 8k miles on the civvy, and really love the car (contrary to the reviews its gotten, its actually not a half bad car.) So far the only mods have been Corsport aluminum shifter base bushings, and yellow fog bulbs, but plans include a high flow downpipe, intake, Hondata, a mild drop and rear sway bar. The car has been perfect in terms of having a fun to drive, reliable daily driver! Plus, since its the Bastard SI of the Honda world, the typical Honda rice boys tend to leave me alone. We finally got some snow today, and my buddy had his camera so he grabbed a couple pictures..

    Nice ride man! Glad you are still around. Is that the Habanero(?) Red Pearl? I do love that color!

    Thanks Guys!

    2ndgenguy- Its what Honda calls Sunburst Orange Pearl. It kinda changes colors depending on what the lighting is. Pictures dont really do it justice, it looks super orange in direct sunlight.

    Just figured id update real quick, ended up ordering a K&N Typhoon Intake. A little power increase according to the butt dyno, but it sounds great!

    Now im torn between putting more money into the car, or money into the bikes for summer....
