Picked it up today!!

Well, today was the day. Picked up my brand spanking new civic.

I went with a milano red executive, and I must say, the pictures cant compare to the real thing.

Anyway, I got honda to install a H&R coiloverkit, and it looks nice

The exe also came with rearparkingsensors fitted, with no extra charge.
And the dealer gave me a t-shirt and a honda MC jacket, not leather but a thin light one that can be used like an ordinary jacket with longer arms in case you gonna ride a bike

18" are comming on in april and I have the type-r grill ready to be fitted

Nice ride, like the gadgets and great look.

Unhappy

My lease company contacted me to say my civic been delayed by a further 6 weeks!!! Was supposed to get it first week of March - then it was last week of March - now its the second week of April .

They say it's because of the glass roof (its and EX). After my rant, they promised me Honda will build it the first week of March.

Apparently the EX isn't a popular model... so they don't keep surplus stock!!!

So csmcqueen - count yourself lucky!!!!

Sounds great - I think they have made parking sensors standard on the 08 model, at least they have in the UK.

Enjoy your new motor!

Much later !!! Like when Global warming has taken over the world and it rains Noah style; but even then, I'd recommend Rain-Ex.

Rain-ex, Red Ex, Tippex, Andrex, Fed Ex, Duran Duran!

No substitute for a wiper!


As I have said many times before Millie is real special, and she must be different from alll the other Civics, she needs a wiper.
