I enjoyed 90s Nissans when they made fun cars.

Surprised at how many people are in love with Honda. They're either annoyingly loud and slow Civics driven by young people with backwards caps, or by old people in sensible sedans like the Accord which are also slow but at least they aren't loud.

What the fuck are you talking about? Civics are squarely average in loudness and unless you need to go like 120 mph their speed shouldn't be a problem lol, they're basically the same as every other standard 4- cylinder sedan.

Cope. I hope you enjoy the 20 long years I'll own it, and the ten more I'll put on top of it for the highschooler who buys it.

I bet this guy has a-

Exhaust on my Civic? Sure do. Love. It. It's for pedestrian safety. They can hear me coming.
