Congratulations! I put over 20k on a Civic Si in one year and it certainly is a bit of odometer shock when you start closing in on the warranty after only a year or so of driving.

So here's the big question... What's the service/reliability report? Any noticeable change in performance?

Well after 36000 plus miles all I can say is that the car seems to getting better and better. Just yesterday I had a Ford probe on my tail. He came around me on the interstate and about cut me off. You know the type. Cut in front of you in a hurry then hit hte brakes because they come up on the car ahead to quick. After the traffic cleared up ahead I passed him. He came out after me. So I decide to take him on. I drop it down to fourth from sixth doing about 75. I think I saw his mouth drop open when he could not keep up. This was the first time I had the car at 130 mph. I did get a friendly wave and horm blast from him when I had to slow up to get of at the next exit. :smile:
