Cracking stuff,
The best civics these, they kinda downgraded the rear suspension with the new ones, these handle really well, remember test driving one when they first came out and getting a proper ticking off from the Sales man

I like the seat and exhaust

Why do those EVO wheel look so much better in the later pictures ?
They almost look like they have grown an inch or 2.

Nice.

I've always had a soft spot for these and the EK9.

Be interested to hear how you get on with fuel as I could have one of these for commuting.
