Default Gettin a new car this week

Ok so i'm gettin a new car...not brand new tho just another addition. It's a '95 civic EX. A friend of mines cousin has it and it was wrecked when he got it and now he doesnt want to fix it so i told him i'll take it. No i'm not gonna sell the mustang, just kinda trying to keep the miles down on it and conserve gas. Any how it's painted a sweet candy blue (house of kolor paint) and has frontend damage, with a set of White gt3 17's on it. From looking over it completely yesterday all it needs is the following: Windsheild/hood/L&R fenders/Bumper/headlights/corner lights...minor spot welding. As far as im concerned it's not bad for a free car that i can have fixed for less then $500. Oh yea the engine that was in the car was a GS-r B18c SUPERCHARGED!!! but the engine was taken out since the sueprcharger had metal shavings in it, but i'm gettin the engine and all minus the supercharger and gonna rebuilt that and probably spend $4k or so and boost it with Full-Race!

Flame on since i'm gonna be Honda owner too

btw; the turbo kit will be with 880cc injectors/.67-1 turbo...hoping for around 380+ whp Daily Driven!

Yea i feel the same way...i'de rather have the Mustang sittin at home just chillin and saving milage on it. Bring it out on weekends and terrorize people lol. The other reason i'm gettin the honda not only as a DD, but so my girl can race at NDRA events in the nopi chic class since they wont allow the v8's.

See. most people dont understand the fact of fuel economy. I'll keep my mustang without a doubt, but it wont be driven as much to preserve milage and save gas plain and simple.

AMEN! The civics are taking over and it's killer. If you really want to save fuel get a Prius. I don't endorse buying a ricer (although rice apparently burns slower than gas) but you get an average of 50 MPG

I think others will understand why i'm trying to cut cost in fuel and save money this winter when the '04 get's all warranties voided when a HP performance 67mm twin turbo kit goes on it! $7k is what i gotta get together and the best way right now is to cut my exspenses in half on fuel. The best way to do that is suck it up and drive an import....since they get 30-40mpg! Plus you can rag the snot out of them and they still keep going. I'm sure Stang00 will agree...theres alot more money in your pocket when you cut back on gas!

Not be rude either but this little honda will run with any of our mustangs and beat many of them....and still get great gas milage.
