ex honda tuners/ general xB Qs
 
Hey im new and have been brousing around and looking at the wonderful forum setup here u guys are great....

Im from Indiana and am really not old enough to drive but alread saving up for the turbo or supercharger release to come but ne way how many of u guys used to love hondas??? I used to dream about about civics with turbos and shizzle like that but now that i think about why drop 3 to 5 gs on a turbo kit for a car that is on the top 3 stolen cars list? I mean yea the xB will draw attention here but wont nearly draw as much as the civics do. Has anybody had there SKY-ON stolen (lol) i kno i kno its Sigh-on.


my dealer here in indianapolis only has 1 and its not even for sale its the demo. I went and sat in it and it was beautiful... But my question is can anybody post some pics of there cars ecpecially rear and side pics that would be great....

Kris....

I'm actually trading my 99 civic in to get my xB. I'm going to miss it, but it's time for a change.

I used to own a 2000 Civic DX and a 2002 Civic Si before selling it and getting my xB last year but I would consider myself still very much into Hondas. I would say I generally still prefer Hondas over Toyotas even though I sold a Honda to get a Scion.

Actually I might be adding another Honda to the garage in the near future, still debating whether to wait and see if the Honda Fit is gonna come over Japan or just get an xA.

A thanks for the link I am very much still a honda person but the purpose of puttin that much money into a car at such high risk of gettin stolen ive seen alot of kids cryin because they were jacked and i dont wanna b in the same boat as them u feel me?

oh yea and which colour (habit of saying colour) would chose in the xB? My dad is hell bent on that white color but im trying tell him i want blue onyx pearl or black...

Black is a dank color if you keep it clean

I used to own a white 93 del sol ... all hooked up w/ body kit, rims, suspension, interior, sounds, lights ... but i sold it and got an xA ..

It's sooo stock now, I feel kinda embarassed going from a show car/2seater to a 4door stock car ... but it wont be stock for long :)

I have a black sand pearl xA ... it's a nice color, but fingerprints show up clearly.

here some pics of my old car

actually, the magnaflow has been the best so far.

Was a big honda guy, sold my 97 EK to get my xB.

Theft was my #1 reason for selling the hatchback and jumping to the xB.

I just hope noone wants an ugly POS box on wheels now.

just give it time... toyota/scion skimpt out and didn't put chips in the keys, therefore it will make the top 3 stolen cars in a year or two...

Yeah im selling my 1993 ford festiva to help with the cost of a turbo, check it out on the classifides section

Yea well if you really want steal from a frosted flakes box on wheels you have serious problems.... Unless they make a movie Very Fast and So furious with some Xbs with killer bbody mods and swaps and motec stand alone ecus then we will really have a problem.... In my area all they do is steal from caprices novas impalas ans cars like that.... i havent really heard except for mayb two kids that got their civics broken into and the people that did it were friends.....

75% of the time your car gets broken into or stolen is when someone has rode with you or has seen what you have got. JUST a little advice

i know how you feel my 96 ek got jacked to i got it back tho then my 93 SC400 got jacked too and theft was also one of the reason i got this cause i was thinking the same thing you were

unlmtdndeavor 03-24-2004 12:56 AM
