JESUS-FUCKING-CHRIST! It's just a car. Plain and simple. It's a car made by Honda Motors, Co, designed to be an inexpensive ECONOMY car. The DX, Value Package, and LX models have a 112 horsepower engine, the EX model has a 127 hp engine (2004 sedan models), and the Si model has a 160 hp engine (2004 model). It's not made for racing, it's made to be fuel-efficient, which it is. Practically every website that has the word "Civic" in it, be it here, a forum, or anywhere else, has this damn argument about whether Civics are good racing cars or not. NOBODY CARES! Most of you probably don't own a car anyway!
The first car I owned a 1989 Honda Civic Hatchback in about 2002-ish. I didn't race it once, but whenever I mentioned I owned a Civic, people didn't care what year it was - they automatically thought I raced and that I was a ricer. Yeah, like I'd race in a car that had a horsepower range of 68-72. I learned to drive a stick shift in that car, that's about it.

Possibly the most useless class that kids today are forced to take. Learn about the government and about issues no one cares about.
Bob- Man, Civics class sucked major ass today.
Joe- Dude I jack off in the back of that class.

The Civic is a car that was designed to be an entry level coupe/hatchback/sedan from Honda.... thats about it. It is very economical and an ease to drive. With gas arriving at record rates, I am sure glad to own one. Many definitions on this site state that a Civic is piece of shit..well compared to some other cars...its not so bad. Now on to the performance part. Civics arent designed to be raced or beat the cars that deserve to be fast. A Civic is simply a "me too" car. I drive a Civic .. but it is allmsot like no other... it will never see a performance part... ever. Honda designed this car as a beater around town and to take on the highway to acheive over 40 mpg... and thats really great!!!... when people started racing them ... those are the fucking idoits that cant afford the really nice cars... Mustangs.. Supras.. 300 ZX's ..etc..etc. This is a car that the parents buy for there teenagers that is cheap and reliable if taken care of ... so the Defintion of a Honda Civic?.... a beater to get you from point A to point B and not in a badass manner that many attempt it to be... thats all.....
You have a Civic?... omg ... me too !!!

Civic <noun> (sih-vik) (1) Cheap import economy car that will take you from point A to point B even after it has been completely run into the ground.
There are three types of Civic: Stock economy car, Sleeper, and Rice burner.
Stock economy car: Driven by a middle class average Joe who wants to save his money on gas and is smart enough to spend his money on something other than an expensive car. Car might have 120 hp if it is one of the top models. The car is driven heavily and used for exactly what it should be: cheap transportation from A to B.
Sleeper: Driven by another average Joe with the acception of a lead foot or car maintenance addiction. Hardly any exterior mods except for maybe some attractive rims or a lowered body. The modifications of a sleeper are almost completely internal. Car can range from a simple cold air intake for a few extra hp off the neighborhood stop sign or a complete engine swap nitrous conversion for the "wolf in sheep’s clothing" effect. Joe knows his civic is not designed to be fast and is placed in many stereotypes so the mods are for his addiction, enjoyment, and to help boost his overly low self esteem from having to drive a Civic.
Rice Burner: Driven by an idiot. Usually mods his car with allot of crappy, shiny plastic accessories that, in theory, make his car go faster than yours. Might put illegal mods on a stock engine or might just keep his car cosmetically "improved" and just try to make people think that his car goes faster than theirs. Car really is a bucket of bolts. Shiny bolts, but bolts none the less. Possibly one of the most annoying cars on the road because of its bad attitude, tendency to flip you off, and the 30 hp outboard motor sound emitted by its shiny new muffler tip.
Stock economy car: "I buy gas once a month and with all the money I saved was able to fix my credit!"
Sleeper: "Yes, I drive a civic. Yes, I have a speed addiction. Yes, I hate ricers. Yes, my car is faster than yours."
Rice burner: "DUDE! I raced a Buick last night and won! I left that old lady in the dust with my super fast and good looking car!"

Civicing: (Noun) is a something like a cult, where young men going through puberty find the opportunity to express themselves through extreme and erratic driving of a Honda Civic preferably in the wet.
Drifting.... is for old folks. Civicing is where the action is at!
Any of various imported cars which feature any of several defining characteristics:
- Enlarged exhaust tip to 'enhance the sound', usually chrome while the rest is not.
- Numerous stickers which, if applied correctly, add enough horsepower to make it beat "any V8".
- So-called "Body-kits" which, from what I gather, enhance the cars ability to be useless.
- V-Tec logos; can also be found on honda MiniVans.
- Incredibly unintelligent, obnoxious, and belligerent drivers.
- Senselessly large amounts of pointlessly oversized speakers and amplifiers.
- Shiny things that don't do anything.
- Rims of a size never, ever intended by the manufacturer to be attached to the car.
- "Home" lowering modifications which shorten tread-life of otherwise good tires while adding 0 performance enhancements.
- Pointless hoods made of some composte material with a colouration bearing absolutely no resemblance to the rest of the car.
- Novelty "wings" and "hood scoops" - often mistaken for NASA project parts or commercial airliner wings affixed to the back, regardless of the front-wheel-drive.
If for some reason, the person has the intelligence enough to open the hood and figure out how to affix any of various aftermarket modifications, the car might also feature:
- Numerous additional chrome pieces ('shiny things') which are illegal in California and don't really do anything.
- Several 'FAILED EMISSIONS' stamps on its title
- $1000-$12,000 in aftermarket parts which make the expense (not the value) of the car equal to a normal stock sports sedan with slightly lower performance and none of the features of the other cars
- Pointless bundles of "cable housing" wrapped around heavily insulated cords with no need to be in a cable housing.
- Perhaps a different engine than listed on the VIN, usually illegal or pointless because it costs more than the car's worth to do.
- Neon lights???
- An abundant amount of additional gauges, usually not wired to anything.
- Copious quantities of cosmetic modifications, added regardless of their effect on the appearance (usually negative).
The most interresting part of it all, is that the owners of these phenominal vehicles claim things such as: "with $10,000 in mods it's still cheaper than your mustang or corvette stock and faster".
They fail to see that in proclaiming this they've only insulted themselves. In order to make your vehicle equal to the other said vehicles, you require additional funding which can exceede the value of the car to add countless modifications and ONLY add to the mechanical performance aspect of the vehicle? After all this, your vehicle has now cost as much as my WRX, Mustang, or Camero? The part where you really fail to impress me, is in that your car is still a $10,000 P.O.S. on the inside and it might barely outperform mine, which is beautifully detailed and feature rich while still comfortable, leagel, under warranty, and less time consuming to achieve.
Okay, one more time: you have to spend MORE time, the SAME AMOUNT of money, and the ONLY benefit is a slight mechanical performance increase?
I rest my case. A Honda Civic is just a mediocre mid-sized sedan that costs less and offers no more. You're always going to simply GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.
"Hey Paco, I added $13,241 of shiz to my Civic and I beat a fully stock, 2 year older Camero by 0.2s! Did you know they're putting CD players in those cars stock? Mine cost me just as much and it still doesn't have one."
