It's good and it's cheap:
it will. But don't let that stop you from enjoying it. Just be careful where you meet your peer group...

To late. The pricing makes it as such. The only difference is that the Civic is produced in the 300K to the FR-S/BRZ's 15.5K annually.

Are we talking first year production numbers for both models?
How many Civic coupe Si's are produced? I think that would be a better comparo.

Yep, first year total production number. I kinda thought the same thing about the Si. But I look at the Civic ricer community as a whole. If you were only looking at the Si, it's prolly around 15K or so given a 5% of total sales. So if you were strictly going BRZ/FR-S vs Si 2D/4D, we're pretty close.

so true! After owning many Honda's, it took me a year or two of owning a Subaru to realize it was ok to use my real name and (general) location of my house.

It happens to just about every car with a following. Browse around
www.1addicts.com sometime. There are people using plastidip to paint all sorts of stripes on their cars, guys putting different colored BMW logos on the car, brightly colored "air scoops" behind the grill, and on and on...

it's a bit of a ricer confession, but the wide, white spokes of the rays/work/volks kin really catch me from time to time.
i can't explain it properly.
