Civic owners are a smart bunch, they know their cars. IMO the Civic Si has one of the best manual gear boxes I have ever used. Much better than my M Roadster, 330ci, etc.
The 135i will be challenged by a whole different group of drivers. Not just the ricers.

I didn't say Civic owner weren't smart but even still a stock SI would still get toasted by a 135i. And I'm not civic bashing because I owned a 98 civic ex and an 03 civic si so I'm qualified to talk about civics. You can compare a Scion TC to a Civic...they're in the same class/segment. I understand what u mean by a Fit, but a Fit is a modders dream like the civic is. But I'm just stating the obvious; and the obvious is that the sport compact world will no doubt challenge the 135. It will be too tempting to do so. Now SRT-4's EVO's and STI's are a different story because those things can flat out move.
Bmw's stock gearboxes do suck but that's what the aftermarket is for.

So yeah, majority are idiots up there, in so cal now, dont see much of it, but they are still around, but loving it here more.

I used to live near Waldorf, MD and every Friday and saturday I would see civic drivers challenge SRT-4's and get Killed. It was the funniest thing you'd see. Over and over again they'd challenge and challenge get blasted. :iono:
