The Manhattan Project II: Sporty's Civic Build

[12,000 RPM]

Sticker bomb a front quarter panel, rust the hood, and extra wide wheels with stance spacers in the back. And a primer gray body kit.

This could be a retro build... straight out of 2009

Who wants bet Sporty is bored with this car in less then 3 months and wants something sportier, or he will give it stiffer suspension and then proclaim it too harsh for commuting?

Can we do a pool on this... I will take the month of June

[Raza]

I thought we were in agreement that the Z roadster sucked

And I already explained why I didnt get the Si.

If u want to buy me a Z roadster and Si though be my guest.

The Z Roadster sucks for me, I think it would be fine for you, if you liked the hardtop.

[12,000 RPM]

Roadster trades much of what I like about the Z for stuff I dont care about. Plus I still have the bike. Dont project your motorcycle fears on me

I'm in. Max 2 months after he gets rid of the Z.

I find this kind of strange, but congrats man

I get that you're trying to hold on to your youth by riding a ridiculous motorized bicycle. We both know that'll be the first thing to go the second your wife gets pregnant.

Actually my wife got me this motorcycle (more or less) for my... 27th birthday? But in any case I get that you want a motorcycle and are too scared to get one, which is why you are so adamant that I get rid of mine and have been suggesting I do so for years. Pls stop. I like riding and having a motorcycle. If you want a motorcycle, take the MSF course, get your license and buy a motorcycle. If you want a motorcycle, but are too scared to get on a motorcycle, don't tell others who have them to get rid of theirs to join you in your paralysis induced misery. Alright? No, I am not trading the bike and Z for a damn Z roadster. This is worse than your TT suggestion.

Motorcycles are always the first to go when kids arrive because your wife wants you to be around for your kids' graduation.

Plenty of fathers ride motorcycles. There is a motorcycle lot at my job and I am easily the youngest rider there. And they are not all cruisers. Gotta_Quik_G8 has been riding sport bikes for decades and he's OK. My wife knows I'm a safe rider. Stop projecting guys

[2o6]

Why do we have no pics?

Yup. Riding a motorcycle SAFLEY is by no means a death sentence.......

[12,000 RPM]

Im heading out now, Ill get some.

[Cookie Monster]

Why do we have no pics?

Seriously, right? It's been like 48 hours, but sporty has no "time" to take pics but has time to argue about his sweet new mods.

[SVT666]

Shens

[12,000 RPM]

OK













I should have checked my settings. ISO was high AF. Exterior has some blemishes but the interior is clean AF. Need to remove the haze from the headlights.

[Gotta-Qik-C7]

The stance of the Honda makes it look like a 4x4 next to the Z. 

[FoMoJo]

A friend of mine has one of these.  His only complaint is the A pillar.  Blocks critical vision for him.

[SVT666]

You have the widest parking stalls I have ever seen.

[MX793]

You have the widest parking stalls I have ever seen.

It's the American south.  Lots of pickups and large SUVs.

[12,000 RPM]

I just parked shitty twice. Or maybe it's just those spots. It's pretty tight over by the buildings.

[AutobahnSHO]

funky handbrake handle!!!!! 

[AutobahnSHO]

Oh btw congrats

Oh please, why would I want the midlife crisis version of a bicycle?  I already own a midlife crisis version of a car, and cars are seriously superior to bicycles.

[Raza]

Civic looks good, by the way.  Black is a good color for it. 

[CALL_911]

Yea, that is a sharp looking car. I like the 8th gen Civic a lot.

[MexicoCityM3]

Seriously, congrats. I don't understand you reasoning in getting it though.

[CALL_911]

Did you retrofit post-facelift headlights on the Z?
