i'm not going to bother explaining it to you. if you think a civic is performance car then keep on thinking that.


going back to the tC SC it seems like a complete setup designed for reliability.

It IS.

But to the general audience that tends to think a xA/xB has the remote possibility of being "sporty," the setup works.

There are Civic DX drivers convinced that their car can kill anything, and there are more tC drivers who think their 3000lbs 160HP hatch and eat a corvette alive. Now with 200HP, there is no stopping them!

I am happily not one of them.

well depending on your definetion of a performance car the civic si can be considered one; however, if you mean its not a sports car i agree with you, if your trying to say the civic si is not performance oriented, then ill just have to agree to disagree with you, and ill forget your "better than thou" attitude you seem to carry with you
