You always call down civic's non stop.

DSM's are not the be all and end all of car's that you make them seem.

Go post video's of DSM's raping Supra's and Skylines
Or a car in its price range.

Or are civic's with their glorious 125hp the only car yours can beat?

i dunno about civics, but my roomy has a 91 swift gt, which is a lil hatchback. Has like 80Hp FWD. Wicked car, tears up the pg winter, gets 54 hwy miles per gallon, requires like no maintenance and I can lift the tranny out with one hand. Maybe it is not as fast as a talon but it is still a very versitile and enjoyable car. Also he could spend money on his car for the next 15 years and it would not amount to a quarter of what you will spend on a dsm.

Get the ECU upgrade on your swift GT and rev it up to 9,000RPM they actually are a sleeper!

Yea he has a chip, bigger flowing fuel rail, bigger throttle body, afpr, new intake, headers all waiting to go on besides the intake and headers. We will be doing a full build this summer, so that should be fun. There's a drag strip up here too so i think we will try and get out there this summer. definately a little sleeper though, a lot more car than i originally gave it credit for. its easy to say that a civic or whatever isn't fast, specially in a turbo awd, but there is definately a side to these cars that is attractive. especially for new comers to the tuning world. we will both be learning lots, and have been learning lots from this little beast. Also his Gt doesn't have a rev limiter so it can go up to 10g's easy.
