Yeah, I gots the ultra-rare JDM snowplow... Mugen designed it in their wind-tunnel, it'll raise the top speed by at least 20 mph [8D]

It sure is an ugly thing. He estimates max speed 140mph just from the areodynamics helping? Imagine how much those aerodynamics could improve your 1/4 mile time.
Actually, all that added weight would do more harm than good. You wont notice a difference in performance unless you're runnin 80+mph for a certain length of time.

seriously, these 5th gen civics are probably already one of the most fuel efficient vehicles you can get, adding home made shoddy plastic body kits that will probably fly off the car, I dont see the point...but the guy claims he can get 95mpg, and reach 140+mph, LOL...does he run special high performance tires at that speed ?

he said he estimates 140mph top speed. who knows though for sure, that 140 is probably all in his head - it's a CX... maybe 140mph drivingdown the side of a mountain.

yeah I didn't think about it... but what if you used some really lightweight material, and gutted the interior a little to compensate for the added weight?
