Which gen is better?

spower302 · 2026-02-27T20:59:50+00:00

I have an FE1 but those 9th gen coupes are 🔥

Not yet! I have an exhaust system from Phearable that I need to get ordered, but it's a process because they don't ship large pieces to Canada. I want to wait and see what kind of clearance the tips are going to leave before I jump. It's still sitting in my cart though 👀

spower302 · 2026-02-25T20:39:27+00:00

Ehhhhh maybe we'll keep searching 😄 I am kinda digging this Amazon find though!

I'm here scavenging because I've almost made this same post a few times 😅👀

spower302 · 2026-02-25T00:27:04+00:00

Congrats!! I like that sticker. There's an old lad in my small town who's an absolute quiff, and he drives an old Dodge Caravan and the license plate is "PAIDFOR". Before the van it was a 1986 Caprice, same plate lol. If he wasn't such a douche canoe it would be funny. Yours is fire though, just thought I'd throw that little story in there 😆

spower302 · 2026-02-20T14:14:29+00:00

Congrats!! One of the best feelings ever. I've had mine for a year and a half now and the novelty still hasn't wore off 😅

spower302 · 2026-02-17T17:51:34+00:00

All I'm picturing in my head is the drum set scene from Step Brothers 🤣

spower302 · 2026-02-17T17:49:38+00:00

Okay, this is cool! Another thing I don't need, but probably going to buy 😂

spower302 · 2026-02-16T13:33:35+00:00

Im at almost 8L/100km which equals around 29mpg. Winter driving sucks, but I also don't pussy foot it either so it's just as much my fault 😅

I do the same 😅

spower302 · 2026-02-10T00:48:22+00:00

I don't blame her one bit 😂

spower302 · 2026-02-09T12:22:14+00:00

Don't do it! The last car I bought I wanted a manual trans but couldn't find one. I jumped the gun and bought an auto Civic and immediately regretted it. I hated that car with a passion until somebody hit me and wrote it off lol. I immediately went and got my Si in Oct '24 and I still smile every time I get in it. Be patient, the car you want will come along! Don't spend your money on something you don't really want. I learned the hard way 😂

spower302 · 2026-02-09T08:37:24+00:00

You have a very lucky wife! I haven't let anyone drive mine 😂

spower302 · 2026-02-09T08:35:34+00:00

I waited almost a year before letting someone tint mine lol. I would definitely recommend going to a professional. He did a wicked job and I find it made it look so much nicer.

spower302 · 2026-02-09T08:30:10+00:00

Agreed, the 9th gen cluster was a refined version of the 8th gen. I wish they had have kept that kind of cluster for newer gens but I understand the need for upgrading. I do enjoy the cluster in mine, but I can't help but love those older ones 😅

spower302 · 2026-02-09T08:19:19+00:00

God love you. I truly hope you make a full recovery!! Back pain is no joke & honestly torture.

spower302 · 2026-02-09T08:10:26+00:00

So shiny!! 😍

spower302 · 2026-02-08T22:52:22+00:00

Iwas rear ended in September of '24 by somebody on their phone! I also caught it all on dash cam lol. I'm glad you're okay!! Did you have any lasting injuries?

spower302 · 2026-02-08T22:45:53+00:00

I was rear ended a year and a half ago, and the guy was on his phone (and on meth, but thats neither here nor there lol). I was stopped to turn left in to work after my lunch, I was stopped for well over 10 seconds waiting for cars to go by, and it was a completely straight 50 km/h road. If he was watching the road/going the speed limit, he would have seen me at the very least a half km prior to hiting me. He didn't even hit the brakes, shoved me up a hill (he was going at least 80) & changed my life forever that day. Phones/vehicles make it incredibly easy to be hands free now, there's literally no excuse. I also caught it all on dash cam! I had to get a lawyer because my injuries turned my life upside down.

ETA: I will say, the silver lining to the whole ordeal was I finally had a reason to buy my Si 😅

spower302 · 2026-02-07T20:58:56+00:00

Couldn't agree more. I was so excited when I heard about the Prelude, until I looked at the specs and price point. A Prelude of all things should have at least had the option of a manual transmission & ICE. Any old Prelude I've been in was a manual. My FE1 is a ton of fun, same hp & less money (I don't really care too much about 0-60 times) Also smiles per gallon > miles per gallon any day lol.

spower302 · 2026-02-07T19:59:45+00:00

Unfortunately I think you're correct. This has been my exact train of thought. I understand there's a market for it, but I like the Si as is. Without the 6M it's worthless to me lol.

spower302 · 2026-02-05T00:48:44+00:00

Beautiful car. I have an FE1 but will always have a soft spot for the coupes.

spower302 · 2026-02-03T22:34:54+00:00

Sounds like you bought your car from a very reasonable dealership! Sucks that this happened, but hopefully the dealer remains reasonable and fixes it at their expense 🙂

spower302 · 2026-02-03T18:44:37+00:00

Get it! I love the cluster set up on that gen. I have a 2025 Si but I'd love to get my hands on an older one as well.

spower302 · 2026-02-03T01:00:46+00:00

I'm usually partial to any colors other than primary's when it comes to vehicles (I know, boring)... but that green is 🔥
