Into
This is my first post so i thought i would introduce myself. I recently purchased a Green 94 SVX with tan interior. I am trading a 99 V6 Mustang for this car. Need the extra cash. I am all about performance and doin stuff to the car myself. If someone could PM me the how-to on the fenderwell intake that would be great. I dont even have the car yet and I already want to mess with it. Ha.

Need the extra cash? Why do you say that? I'd say your trading UP to the SVX. No offense, but man, a v6 mustang? BLECH. Pony car insurance rates, pony car styling, with lethargic Honda Civic DX performance. Anyway, I'd try to keep the mods to a minimum. SVXs are awesome, but I have a feeling it'd be wiser to save your money for repairs than to spend it on mods. :|

btw, there might be a how to for it already. Just look in the upper right corner, click on lockers, then click on 'how to'. G'luck.

Watch yourself on the mustang comments. I still have some love for the car. I have never seen a stock Civic DX that can keep up with it.
Mustang vs. Civic DX Engine: V6 vs. Inline-4 HorsePower: 190 hp vs. 106hp Torque: 225 ft-lbs vs. 103 ft-lbs. 0-60mph: 7.3 sec vs. 8.5 sec Seraph: Mine is an AWD. Is that what you were talkin about? |

That can't be right! A mustang GT (260hp) can only manage a 6.8sec 0-60. So your saying a 6cyl can do 7.3? With a few mods maybe, but im skeptical. The SVX is a world of difference from a mustang. It's comfortable, quiet, and much more responsive. Plus if you're used to the upkeep for a mustang, then the SVX repairs shouldn't be that much of a shock.

If you bought this car to save money, I urge you, to sell it right now. This car may be cheap at first, but the repairs are murder on bank accounts. The car's rarity presents both pros and cons: unique, one of a kind styling, and high repair prices at the same time. |

Ha. A neon. No wonder the ignorance on cars. Changing from that would make any car seem like a jaguar. Ha
Shadow: That is the number that i found on edmunds. You very well could be right. I know that i may be knew here, but i know enough about cars to know that mentioning a mustang in the same sentence as a civic anything other than an SI is just rediculous. Someone please back me up here. |

No double standard here. Know what? I've raced V6 pusstangs in my 5spd neon. Guess who won??? I've also raced v6 camaros. Guess who won? V6 ponycars are pathetic; they cost a lot, they use lots of gas, they don't have great handling, they have high insurance, and they're SLOWER than a SOHC 5spd neon. PUKE. I've even beaten early 90s Mustang GTs, before they got the newer engine.
Sad but true. - Ca$h PS: My neon has no mods... well.. engine wise. v6 mustangs are completely and totally pathetic, don't bother trying to defend them. If you had a v8, it'd be a different story. |

Apparently there is. It ain't about who wins, it's about personal preference. You like your Neon -- GREAT! He likes his Mustang -- GREAT! Pockets likes his Justy -- HA!, I mean, GREAT! If you don't like people doggin' what you like, don't dog people for what they like. A lot of people say "YUK!" when I tell them I like Peanut Butter on Green Peppers. I like it. It's all that matters.

first of all welcome to the network and congrats on your svx
second of all, i am a Ford Girl. but you really can't say that a 6 cyl Mustang is really a mustang...it is a waste of material and space that should be filled with an 8. there is no reason to by a car with a pony as a lable unless you got the full package (stick, 8...the whole 9) Kelli
