You made the right choice. Dumping 20g's into a honda civic is quite possibly the stupidest thing you could possibly do with that money. It's a honda civic, an economy car meant to shuffle students and poor people to and from work and the grocery store. There is nothing special about it and no amount of wings, lights, or chrome will make it special.

I'm not trying to pick on you here (OK maybe a little!) but the scene from the Fast and The Furious popped into my head where he says he needs 2 nitrous bottles implying that 2 was faster than 1. Yes I am smart enough to know it just lasts twice as long and that you probably did it for symmetry reasons in the trunk.

congrats on the rx8
my last car was a 1995 four door civic with about 20k dumped into it also
the rx8 is just all around higher quality i think
post some pics of your ms kitted rx8
