If the car was one solid color and that the stick wasnt so dayum tall.....It would look alright. But that is about as far as I would go with it. As one said above....It's still a honda!

22k, wat a joke. I have respect for swaped hondas, but this is a little umm yea, Gay!

Looking at a civic with a B18C or B16 swap, or even a custom D16 boosted is cool, and their quick, but something like this, I can not see it being very reliable. Plus the ricer paint job, along with the gay lip kit...22K is a joke!

That's things fukked up like a football bat.

Great idea, bad execution. For those who asked, it says that it has a trans axle in the rear of the car... so that is why it looks like a tranny...

Now a 2000 Civic converted to RWD with a boosted LS1 would be kick ***.

If you wanted to stay import based power plant wise, maybe a Boosted Supra inline 6 (if it'd fit)?

From the listing:

V6 engines have a tremendous amount of torqe, plus, you add a turbo and you have over 400lbs


Does this seem funny to anyone else?
