supras, rx7s, vettes are in their league. example

so besides another honda, a vw golf? ford focus? mitsu elcipse?

flames welcomed

 

a civics biggest comp is another civic

 

didn't you ever see that one initial D? The Civic's greatest rivals are the Trueno's and The Levin's. But in real life, i would say some V-Dub crap

 

toyota celica. any year

 

I'd say a 1992 Nissan Sentra SE-R or sumthin... maybe a Mazda Protege... ummm a Ford Escort ZX2 thingy... But I think the ARCH rival that the Civ has, and always beaten but there is some underlying rivalry. The Toyota Corrola.

The Tercel too maybe

 

another slow civic!

 

or another slow 200sx

 

hahahahahaha!!! Good one!

What about a GTI or VR6?

I think he was using that as an example.

 

I think in the US atleast the Corolla doesn't seem like such a big rival because we never got any of the FF GT-Ss after the AE91. Its rivaly between the B16 and the 4A-GE both produce roughly 160-170hp in fairly light FWD sport-ish economy cars. IMO

 

anythin HYUNDAI......

 

mustangs and camaroes are my arch rivals

 

same here damn those guys!

 

A kid on a bicycle...

 

Anything 4cyl is comp for the Civic.

 

Except bikes

 

I think DSMs should be up with the likes of Supra's and RX-7s, god knows they can rip them a new ******* off the line

 

In japan the competion is the Mitshbshi cyborg or colt as it is in the UK. they do i high spec version like the type R. it revs to 8200rpm as standard.

when your driving a dx....ex's and si's are your arch rivals

...and I'd say the vw's.

and who said a Ford escort ZX2??? ...I'd smoke that!! hehe

 

i'd say pretty much anything cuz everyone who doesnt drive a civic seems to think they are slow. I think alot of you are forgetting preludes tho. It seems to me that most people who have those think they are somehow much more elite than people with civics cause there were less sold.

 

dodge neons too. =X anything in the fwd lightweight range.

 

Any four banger under 20k.

And damn...I wish we got the Cyborg...



It's pretty cool looking.

I think it's kind of silly to try and compare Civics to other cars because there's way too many factors to debate.

To be fair why not compare bone stock Civics to other bone stock cars.

If this is the case then we could basically look to any automotive magazine like ?Motor Trend, Car and Driver, etc. where they always pit the Honda Civic (Si) vs. the Mazda Protege', SVT Focus, blah blah blah.

 

I agree. a civic with a b18c5 arch rival ,isnt going to be a civic coupe ex. its gonna b something like a z28 or something. or maybe even a boosted teg anything is a arch rical whenyourracing i suppose.

 

how about the integra?
