You're seriously asking this question?

The MKIII is cake to modify reliably.

honestly! if you want to build a honda your better off building a EG6 then a EK the weight difference is big, and parts are everywhere for the supra your just not looking hard enough. but it looks like you really want the CIVIC

When you buy a civic you are put in one category ,"ricer". When you buy a supra even the muscle car guys know when to acknowledge it's beastlyness. Its hard being thought of as "fast" or even "cool" when you are driving a hatch that was intended for getting the groceries in the most reliable fashion available"A.K.A a grandma car". Even if it is fast, there is a saying "racing a honda is a lot like racing in the special olympics, even if you win your still retarded." I would rather have my supra then a Honda, but do what you want.

yeaaaaaaa no mrsupramk3speed guy just because people have civic's does NOT make them ricers GRANTED! 90% of civics on the roads today are riced out but theres still a shit ton of fast civics.

rice is excessive modding that does not increase performance or anything else, you can rice out anything. not buying a civic and driving it if thats true then im an american ricer for driving an automatic neon as a daily......

i think what everyone is saying, in some not nicer terms lol, is keep the supra, 7M-GTE that bitch, tune it to kick ass, and then if u have money later and still want the civic, then go and get it...

but for now, keep the supra, better car, more reliable when taken care of, and a hell of alot stronger than a civic...

just my $0.02

Hey MA70.ENT I know my opinion wasn't brilliant, but do you really need a smart answer for a stupid question? Im glad to hear 89supra884 is going to keep the car, and i don't think all hona's are rice. I just really believe that non-car associated people who'm know nothing of the B series motor will think you are just another ricer (sorry just my opinion).
