Default Why I drive a Honda!!!

Hi I'm fairly new to the forum so I figured I would stop in an introduce myself. I've only owned my civic for a couple of months now. I have a 97 hx, with jdm yellow foglights, type r front lip, toxico hp shocks with tein s techs, and drag dr16 wheels etc....(will post pictures later!) But their is a reason I now drive a honda, the main reason is I rolled myprevious vehicle on the highway going about 75mph with the cruise on. By the time the vehicle had stopped rolling the only salvagable part was the rear license plate! This was all the cause of a yellow jacket stinging me in the eye while I was driving [:@]!!! While I was laid up in bed because of the accidentI found this forum and starting reading the articles,looking at pics, and finding out how nice everyone was on here. So I took the insurance check and bought myself the civic I now own...It feels good to be driving again and being part of this whole honda community! Thanks to this forum I feel like I'm part of something now, and gives me something to do while I'm laid up in bed. So I just want to say thank you!!!!

P.S. (below are some of the pics from my accident, not real great but you get the idea. And yes my door is straped to the hood it flew off during the rollover no jaws of life were used!)
