Default thinking about ...

getting this salvaged Honda Civic Hybrid near my house that is for sale, and making it EXTRA RICE.

Like full side body decals, racing stripe, maybe even Japanese letters. What do yall think? Oh and def Type-R emblems ext... maybe even neons.

Its grey color, if anyone has any ideas, I might just make this a fun joke car for my daily drive...


by the way my other car is a 1996 civic ex 2.4L h22, so i'd have 2 civics, 1 fast and 1 eco.

Maybe if you were going to make a spiffed fast and the furious. Have a completly riced out hybrid pull up next to a minivan and rev. Then when the light changes the minivan just completly blows it out of the water. And then it gets passed by the RV behind it. So you hit the button labled NAAAAWZZZZ, but all that happens is an ice cold energy drink comes out of the steering wheel.

If it were my car I would just make it presentable. Maybe lower it and put some 16in alloys on, but this is not my car it is yours.

this had me in stiches for about a few minutes ...


well, ill give some more details ,, i might be able to get a 2004 salvage Hybrid for about $8000. The tranny is new and is still under warranty ... a rock hit the car ... there is still some MINOR body damage, on the rear bumper a spot and front bumper, but the car is restored to 97% new.


well, this is my dilema ... I was actually looking at either a Type-S RSX, or SI Civic, something with the K20z dual cam since i think thats a repektable , BUT im looking at a few thousand more ... and I might just eat my wants and get the Hybrid for a gas aver and free carpool (I live in California) ... so i was playing around with ideas to make the Hybrid more fun if i did go with that. i was kinda looking at this si on ebay ... anyways im just throwing some ideas here =]

Not really what I'd call a tech thread.
