Well-known for its excessive revving VTEC engine, and a era of memes that adopted it (often exhibiting a crashed Civic and the tagline “VTEC simply kicked in, yo!”), this automotive rapidly grew to become a favorite of the JDM crowd. Should you don’t have one but, it would set you again a mere 25,000 credit on the Autoshow

The monitor does have a fairly good stream to it, it’s only a disgrace that we couldn’t take a correct drift automotive on it.
