It would be funny if it was not true.

Steve,

Actually, I have a 2002 Civic EX with the Factory Performance kit (skirts, dams, lowered suspension etc.). I put on the cold air intake and a custom cat back exhaust. That must have added at least 3 hp and the honeys love it.

I did it all tongue in cheek, but it really is a hoot to drive. I know I'm not the fastest thing on the road, but it sure sounds like it and I get 33 mpg to boot. It also handles corners like it is on rails. When I want real speed, I take out the Mach. When I want to get to and from work every day rain or shine, I drive the Honda.

Yeah, but did you get the V-tec stickers?

They left out gutting the interior and of course the NAAWS.

Yeah. I'm the "Maytag" guy, sometimes.
But don't tell anyone.

Very funny Steve! I like messing with the kids at work about having a coffee can full of bees on the back of thier car. Or I ask them why they put that big shopping car handle on the back of thier car. Is it there in case you need to push it off to the side of the road????

Even better than the stickers, I got a real VTEC engine. Unfortunately, it gets 33 mpg, which means it isn't set up to provide the same kick in the pants of a real VTEC. I'm debating putting my extra NOS sticker on the side window just to intimidate people. I also have an extra fire extinguisher that I might paint blue and put on the floor behind the passenger seat to really throw them off.
