My less than month old 05 IP G

I've been roaming the boards for about 2 months now, and posted a few times here or there, but haven't really had the chance to post an intro. I bought my 05 IP/Stone 6MT coupe about 3 weeks ago. I previously drove a 99 Civic Si with a built Integra Type R motor, turboed (300whp), and too many other things.

All I can say is the G is awesome. Besides a few blemishes that the dealer had to fix, I don't have any complaints about this car. Its been quite a big jump from my last car to this one. But I don't regret selling it a bit.

A few snap shots of it the other day. Mods already are JDM Clear Corners, 35% tint, Sun grounding kit, drop in K&N filter, Motordyne 3/8" spacer. Thinking about getting the HKS Hi-Power exhaust later on

Haha, well, I've been into Honda's for the last 8 years, so it was time for a change. I bought the Civic brand new and modded it since day 1 so it was time for something different and nice. Speed is cool and all, but in the end, its still a Civic.

Here is a pic of the old car BTW.

The Si used to be black, was repainted Championship White (same as the Type-R's).

Blemishes: Rear bumper looked like someone rubbed up against it or something. Rear wheel had 4-5 scratches (2 were pretty deep). Driver door panel had white spots that wouldn't come out. All were fixed by the dealer.

Haha, well, I didn't used to. But when you live in a place where its 110+ degrees frequently, you learn to like it a lot. Ever gotten into a black car after its sat outside in 115 degree whether? Its not fun.

funny thing is, my Si looked the same but black, mugen lip, carbon fiber hood, ctr lights, regamaster's (gunmetal) and sometimes volk ce28's. Used to be turboed, then took out the turbo and motor and put in a jdm type r motor, only thing differetn is i had spoon mirrors.
