Haven't been into forums much recently, but thought I'd show off my new toy!

Nice car, congrats! Honda still makes one good-looking car, let's hope they don't screw up the next gen Civic like they've done with everything else.

You've been eyeing an Si for some time now. I remember you talking about how you missed a NA engine. I see you went ahead with it.

Congrats!

A bunch of us here got GTIs since you went MIA.

So how's the new ride? You didn't say much in that one sentence. ;D

Looks very nice in black, well done.

Anything go away to make room for this?
