im really thinking of buying a civic to build on the side, theyre just so much cheaper and fun then newer cars, clean shells can be had for under 1g, and i love to work on cars!

I dont regret getting my tC harder to steal then a regular old civic. My dad, brother, and all my friends had GSRs and Civic hatches. All of there rides could be opened with a regular key.

ya i know man my buddies jacked my b17 da once. brought it back but i was tripping cause that motor is rare for hondas in my area and it was the best of both worlds. I loved my honda but I love the torque of the tc. I can make something out of it. anyone know of any more videos / documentaries like this ?

no, i meant ironic.
i said several posts up i shoudlve bought a hatch, then a couple days later i end up actually buying a civic. (not a hatch but still...)

P.S. ironic is sometimes used as a synonym for coincidence
