...and then you have a "quick" economy car. No matter what you do, a Civic will never be a true sports car (Mazda RX-7), a grand touring car (Mitsubishi 3000GT) or a "muscle" car (Plymouth GTX). The guys who don't realize that, the ricers, are the problem.

nowadays its hard to just draw a line between a sports car/economical car. I disagree with you entirely buddy. Look at the mazdaspeed protege'. its just a freakin 4 door mazda compact with a turbo, factory alloys and some suspension. One of the guys here at school has one and it looks sporty as all hell. Same with the WRX...its a 4 door sedan...same chassis as the 2.5 RS, granted the AWD gives it that sport appeal, but its basically just souped up version a economy car.

Making a Civic sporty isn't that hard to do at all...

Civic get their bad name for being common. I have white 1998 ex coupe, so 4-5 other people at my school. they are reliable affordable cars. And the fact of the matter, if you see an ugly riced out car on the road, chances are high it could be a civic.
