I dont think they're going to drop in price any time soon. See them sell for 16k all day long thats clean


They're not going to drop.

They're the one affordable Honda that's worth owning.

Every fuckboi with a rusty hatchback aspires to have one.

Couple days, I was super young then tho. My best advice to people just starting its key to have a steady foot. Practice holding rpms at steady 1.5k(depending on car)once you can do that without fluctuation start to engage clutch. This will wear your clutch faster than normal driving but it helps newer people that get discouraged from stalling. After you get it down, just keep practicing and evolving how much gas you give it and how and where to engage the clutch.

Every car has a different feel so if a new car you've never drove take the extra second or 2 to release the clutch until u feel it start to grab then push back down b4 stalling so you have a general idea of when to start gasing and when to slow down on letting up the clutch.

/e nice I love s2ks, I'm a big Honda/Chevy guy. S2k ap1 or ap2? If ap2 I'm jelly... I want one but the prices havnt gone down on them. My friend has one with basic boltons, only thing to watch for is the ass end tends to come out on them if turning and hit a bump or just losing traction around turns.


Your friend needs to lean a thing or two about the car if that's happening

My friend bought a miata. He got hit by a focus. We now call him the metal man. He got over a mill from icbc though. I guess im biased, i think miatas are death traps.

Roll bar only protects you from a roll over, and that's if your head doesn't smack it
