Alot of it is just incompetent people trying to tune these cars... They are either not putting the right parts on or the right combination of parts on... with the right combination of parts I think that a Civic would really give us a run for our money... As much as I hated typing that it is true... There are just too many performance parts out there and those cars are nice and light and easy to mod.... Oh well, atleast they will always be a honda and never look like an SVX
