My buddy has a b18 hatch, its actually pretty nice for an import. Hes got some tastefull looks mods and coil overs n some other things but it is still slow, fun to drive but slow. hes bragged about beating a new silverado on the highway, lol. He knows its slow and doesnt try to come up with bs kill stories.

I don't know how many imports have "kept up" with me. Why bother running it hard when you don't have to "run" to walk them

I do kinda wonder what kind of stories they've told their friends later.

I can have my wife race him in her pontiac g6.... I am sure even that car will blow his doors off.. LOL

dont waste your gas on that one.... I will predict the difference between the 1.6 and the 1.8 is, so you say he pulled 2 cars.... well this time he will pull 2.5 cars in the same time, and you will catch and pass in the same time it took you to do so the 1st time around.

in the end its still a ugly ricer, a person that doesnt take car of their car.
