To my Civic (Y)

Took delivery 3 years ago, technically on the 17th, but the finance date is 22nd, so we'll use that :)

It has delivered completely trouble-free transportation since I got it... the only problem I had was the cracking visor, but that has been promptly replaced by the dealership last year.

Changes made:
- Auto day/night mirror with compass (July 2007)
- Custom garage door opener (August 2007)
- TWM Performance Short Shifter Kit (March 2008)
- Polk Audio db651s speakers (March 2009)
- Continental ExtremeContact DWS tires (October 2009)
- Philips X-treme Power bulbs (December 2009)
- LED tail lights - Custom painted (May 2010)

Mainly modifications that don't affect the looks other than the tail lights, so it looks almost completely stock. :P

Compact cars FTW... significantly better driving experience, better handling, better fuel economy, etc.

:P I love compact cars, but would never trade my TL-S. 431 miles on a Civic gas is pretty impressive!
