Windows tinted effectively black, giant wing, and a plate cover they think makes them immune to cameras. Total douche canoe.

Once, while waiting in line at the DMV (MVA? I forget which states use which acronym), I was behind someone defending their use of plate covers. I don't know much about the person - I only interacted with them long enough to direct them to another line, mainly to get them away from me - but based on everything they said, they might have been the worst (or at least most annoying) person I ever met.

Pretty sure the R comes with all of that except the plate cover.

Aren't Civics front wheel drive?

Isnt the back of the car connected to the front?

LOL, yes. But it still helps with stability, aerodynamics, and cornering.

Yes,Ive built serious competition cars for 20 years. I realised I couldnt be fucked getting into an argument on Lemmy about balancing aero.

Oh, I actually meant to reply to the person above you who asked if it's front-wheel drive.
