Hi Everyone,
First time I've posted here... Not really what clubITR was until a few days ago when my friend Julie who owned a black DC5 and now has a grey DC5 said this was the place to be instead of the other forums. Plus I needed an excuse to go foruming while sitting through a lecture. :P
My name's Stephen, currently working as a research data personnel and drive a 2010 Honda Civic FD in Sparkle Grey. I bought this baby brand new for $26K in auto... never mastered manual and not willing to learn anymore after destroying the clutch on my friend's Hyundai Accent. My car prior to this was a 2002 Toyota Corolla and prior to that? A 2001 Ford Falcon AU ex taxi wagon with 1.2 million KMs. Yes, I said 1.2 million KMs.
At the time I considered buying another Corolla, but my 80 year old grandfather owned a Honda S2000 and that car just seemed so good. Hence, I chose a Honda. He now drives an MX-5 in auto cause he can't drive a manual due to a sore leg (After S2K was a silver Civic FN2 and then MX-5). Could say he inspried me to love my car just that bit more... well he does have 4 cars or so to himself. :P
When I got my FD, it was bare stock... like with nothing at all. Couldn't afford the "Limited edition" which was being offered at the time either, so I got the VTi and optioned for floor mats, visors, factory reverse sensors and mud guards. Come three years later in 2013 and after paying the car off, I decided to add some more stuff from the brochure.
So far... after a fair amount of $$$ to the dealership...
* OEM Honda Bass Works Premium audio package
* OEM Bluetooth system
* OEM Fog lights
* OEM Boot liner
* OEM Rear door cup holders
* OEM Chrome exhaust tip <--- still too ceebs to put this one on.
* OEM 15" Modulo alloy wheels
* OEM Ambient floor lighting kit
* Tinted windows
* OEM Door garnishes
Plans for the future?
* The whole OEM factory Modulo bodykit... including the modulo spoiler...
* Might get a set of BBS LM's in 17" or TE37's... that's if I can't get my hands on the rare 17" OEM Modulo's :P
Sorry but I can't slam my baby cause it won't make it through the driveway at home or at uni. Train to work, so yay... car doesn't have to go there! :P
Anyway, a thread without pics ain't a thread, so here's a few...
When I first got her... completely stock with nothing at all!
Foggies, yo.
Bass works OEM upgrade.
Ambient lighting
Garnishes.
How we're looking at about... now.
