Can't even classify this as a review. Just 3 kids driving down a city street and saying which one has the best looking vents, wing, seats, and shift knob.

Well if fake vents were the criteria then the Civic has it hands down. They are all over the damn thing.

I think their commentary and back in forth is a pretty forced, borderline cringe worthy cause they're trying too hard to be witty.

The production value is there, the camera work is nice. But their personalities are just a bit too bland.

think of the three nerdiest guys you knew in high school and imagine if they decided to all get cool by becoming full stance retards. That is all this video is. At one point they mentioned the adjustable dampers. Seriously? I mean I guess 80's tech is cool, but anyone who even thinks about going fast are going to dump them as fast as the stock wheels and tires.

I saw a black one, and it looked good.
Mostly because the black hid the vents (fake and otherwise).
