Nova Scotia BS Thread

I feel ya there. I'd be rid of my truck in a heartbeat if I didn't need it for work.

 

Yes! I honestly would love a pickup I just don't feel it's worth the cost premium versus a diesel manual 4x4.

 

I just prefer cars haha.

 

Why not both? Haha

 

Limited parking where I live in Calgary. There's a freaking waiting list to get a second stall in my condo. Job requirements limit my automotive choices (my vehicle essentially has to be an off road biased jack of all trades).

I have a car I leave on the East Coast though, so that helps, but I only get back so often.

The Tacoma works best for my needs, and I love it to death, but if it wasn't for my career needs a pickup would never even be on my radar of interests.

 

Totally understandable! What do you have left back here? I love trucks, I think they are a damn near perfect daily driver, however they aren't as fun as a car can be on a day to day basis

 

A 2008 Civic Si with the HFP upgraded suspension and brakes.

 

Orange coupe?I wonder if ive seen it around. I used to have a lowered Corolla.

 

White.

 

dont think ive seen a white one about. anything aside the springs that would set it appart in a crowd?

 

Not particularly. Its usually surgically clean. I'm not one for loud noises or flashy looks. Plus, it probably spends 95% of the year under a cover in my folks garage haha.

 

Well that's rare for a civic! I'm sure it's great to drive!

 

So this thread has been silent for a couple days. May as well show you guys what came to port for me!

Nice! What motor does it have?

 

And when do we get to see it for real?

 

Ah I didn't realize the altezza was an IS equivalent.

 

I think they're 2 liter turbo

It is it is!

it is a 2 leiter, but no turbo. The turbo ones are the RS200t Toms ones. They are worth about 8000 more than this car, which I only paid 4200 for all in.

 

Shit! That's not bad! You could turbo that for less than the extra 8 grand!

 

Is it RHD?
