Shoebox 2012, ending another year (90 Civic Hatch)

2012 car season is coming to a close. Figure I will post up some pics of my hatch from 2012. I have owned this car since 1996. Got it all stock with 30k miles on it in Auto/DX trim. It now has a manual Tranny, ZC DOHC with a Greddy turbo kit. Every year I have added more and more and it has become what you see today. Love it or hate it, this car has been a major part of my life since I was a teen "now 35 YIKES!" Special thanks to Ten by Ten Custom Carbon for all the Carbon Fiber goodies and support. Many other thanks to HT members, and people who have helped me along the way!

Till next year!

Love this car and love seeing owners who actually keep their cars instead of parting them out every year or two.

When I was showing at Honda Day in NJ, a nice Japanese fellow was snapping some pics. He said your car? I said yes he handed me a card and a paper that says- I am from USDM Freax magazine in Japan and we would like to have your car in our Mag. Guy didnt speak much English so used the paper to speak, haha pretty cool though
