    If you are buying it for autocross I would highly recomend getting a C5 Z06 for not much more money.

    Probably not, he's quite a bit faster and nearly as sarcastic.

    I would be happy to unretire my ASP cherry picking number and join you for select local events you attend if you want.

    Somehow insurance is 16 buck every 6 months cheaper then the civic. I don't know how, but I'm not fighting it. And lucky I have that 2nd job at discount tire, so tires won't be too terribly bad.
