i like the SC in the background......i've seen that ek around a few times.....it's ok, the only thing i probably like are the c5s......
well, the car is ok, but in my opinion, i wouldn't buy a civic with stuff on it already, id buy an eg or an ek stock and build it from there....not fun when stuff is already there.....just my opinion....

that car's prolly not my cup of tea... the front's too aggressive and dun like the cf hood either..
well i put many many milage on my car everyday so i can only imagine the kit got ragged up pretty quick...
it's a bit tempting to have everything all done for u and in a mucho cheap price

i guess it all depends what you like.
the important factors are reliability and value. if it is reliable, well maintained, and good value, it then comes down to the look of the car.
personally, i prefer not to be seen driving or riding in a car like that, but that's just me.
the big question is, with the same amount of money you are planning to spend for this car, what other can you get? it is all about opportunity cost.

Pass up on that thing!
The amount of money you need to "de-rice" that thing would be about the same amount it will cost you to buy a decent swapped civic.

I'm sure you could find more of a stock civic for that price that'll do you just fine. If it's just about saving gas, IMO, get something understated and simple.
