Hello everyone, my name is Alberto, im 23, i am a personal banker and college student and I live in Chicagoland (near Batavia, IL)
I had purchased a 2013 Subaru WRX, pretty much the car of my dreams, but life decided to b*tch slap-me in the face and my economic standpoint went downhill really fast. So i went back to the dealership and surrendered the car, and I was able to get into a 2012 Honda Civic Si.
It is not my first honda ever... my first car back in 2008 was a 1997 Honda Civic DX
Followed by a 94 Integra (worst decision ever, spent over $5k in repairs, eventually junked it and got a 2012 Lancer with 07 miles on it, then traded in the lancer for the WRX)
But anyways like I said, life was good, i had my WRX <3 but life can be mean and make you loose something you love, hah.
So now I have a 2012 Honda Civic Si... this time I plan on keeping this car for a minimum of 4 years.
As far as mods go I wont do "much"
- 6000K HID
- 40% tint all around
- Exhaust - probably the Injen axleback, I liked the sound clip, it sounded really deep, but if anyone has other suggestions, also thinking about the Greddy SP elite.
- Short Ram Intake.... the subaru is still in me, i love driving through puddles, so a CAI would be suicidal for me haha, I am looking for a SRI with an airbox with still functionality of the OEM ram air, so perhaps the K & N SRI.
- PIAA or HELLA yellow bulbs for my fogs.
- Continental DWS tires
- BBS look-a-like mesh wheels or Sparco Asseto wheels, 17 inch.
- Lower car, no more than 2 inches, either springs or coilovers.
- Spacers... probably 15 mm.
And I believe thats it... well more pics, hope to meet some local people too!
