Welcome to the forums.
Welcome to the forums. Hope to see you at an autocross sometime.
First thing I saw. I've been checking it all over to see which ones I can make it too. Thanks!Quote:

Only good thing was I don't think that car even needed gas to go, many times I would just fuck with it and see how long I could not fill it up for, often getting like 40mpg in town. Once the fuel gets low and the fuel starve thing comes on I swear that thing ran on air, slow as all get out but still.
Oh BTW he was feigning ignorance, he knows what a civic is, most of the people on here have owned hondas at one point or another.
:snack:
We wasn't joking. He's the Village Idiot. ::BaHump::Quote:

In addition to owning or lusting after a Miata, all members should either currently own, previously owned, or plan to own (or have owned in a past life) a Honda. Civics are preferred, but lawn mowers will do in a pinch.
Yup... I had an '89 hatchback, moved on to an 04 Miata LS, then to the Stook...Quote:

I met the site requirements with the previous ownership of a '95 DX coupe, a '95 LX sedan, a '98 Prelude, and an '05 CR-V (current wife-mobile).
Also, like Dave04, I no longer own a Miata, yet I'm still a moderator here. Strange, strange place. :scratch:
By the way, I strongly encourage you to read this thread. There are a lot of ::Bum::::Clown::s on here. Just beware! :wink:

Actually mine is an auto. Its slow but I have a K seies motor sitting in the garage waiting to be swapped in. Still with it being an auto civic, I still beat an M3 and a vette. A few other cars as well.Quote:

You should have lot's of fun with that K series, you are gonna to put the manual tranny in with it right? Since you've got the auto you can attest to the fact those thing can go 100 miles on an eighth of a tank.
Wow the "caged wonder" is also the "bash master"! :nutkick:
Once again welcome to this..... ;-)
I know dude even when I'm trying to say something nice-ish, I can't help but somehow make it sound like I'm a hater. Oh well it's my lot in life.:rolleyes:
I thought to be a Moderator, you can't drive a Miata. ::Bust1::Quote:

I will also be boosting so it should be fun. And yeah my car can go forever. the best MPG i got was the other weekend. My tank is 12.8 gallons. I drove from Downtown San Antonio to McKinney on less then half a tank of gas. It cam out to around 49.3 MPG. It was amazing. Granted I only went 55-60 mph the whole way.Quote:
