WTF?
For what? Daily driving, Auto-X, ricing, crashing, selling, dragracing, pimping, having sex in, showing off, looking like a retard in, you name it.
Try to ask coherent questions.

Yes, better than MB but not BMW. However you pay for this, as Civics are damn expensive, I would personally go with an M5 or SLR - maybe not as good but alot cheaper.

But what are we talking about? Pure engine performance? How could a Civic be better as a whole car than a BMW or Merc?
A VTEC Civic could probably be faster in some situations than a 316 3-series, but well, not "better"

This whole question remains BS as the question simply sucks. Cars can't be compared new.
A Civic is not a bad buy, but offers different qualities than a BMW or Benz.

vtec technologu kinda old ???? you are joking they kept improving vtec over the years now they had the vtc to vtec and other stuff yes the vanos from bmw is great but it is not the same you don't feel the power like in a civic crx vtec yes it is not the same bmws are comfortable classic great cars with value and tt when you say that a civic vtec could be faster than a 316 bmw you smoke blunt i was talking about the civic vtec with 150 bhp i think even a 320 i bmw would be eaten by the MIGHTY VVTTEECC :fist:

We are going nowhere.. the original question as pointed out makes no sense.. is the VTEC an excellent car better than BMW of Mercedes... an engine with VTEC technology can boost some interesting hp/liter, no doubt about it, and it's installed in light, nimble cars, ence pretty good performance, but let's stop here this useless bullshit about killing an M3 with a Civic and so on... might be faster, but I wouldn't say "better".
And BTW, we all know the best hot hatch of the moment is the Clio :roll:

Hey whats with you? All the Honda talk, even in a Ferrari thread.
Look man Honda is an economy car brand. It has nothing to do with BMW or Mercedes.
Do me a favor and start a thread on how to get better milage out of a civic rather then whats how VTEC is oh so great and powerful.
Something smells like rice.......anyone else smell the rice stench?

Hehe, wait for the scans of the latest evo issue and you'll see how such car can score pretty well even when compared to much more expensive and exotc stuff
