Who drives Civics in your area?

In my area, the taxis, couriers, security and cops use Civics.

In my area, cool people...like myself...use Civics (Si's in particular). None are used for taxis or security...

In my area, everyone drives Civics. I have a coworker lady, she's 63 years old, and she drives a 2006 Civic Si. She got pulled over by a cop for no reason, not for speeding, and the cop asked her if it was her car. She had to pull out papers to prove it was registered to her. A Civic is definately not a cool car in my area, I swear, every single street and avenue has at least one 8th gen. civic.

While 8th Gen Civics are not a dime a dozen here, they are fairly common. Si's however are another thing. Since the 8th Gen Si came out for the '06 model, I have scarcely seen any FG2's or FA5's on the road. In dealership lots, yes, but on the street, no.

Same here ^

I rarely ever see an Si around where i live. There is about 6 Civics where I live, most of them Sedans. I see at least 4 a day on my way to work and such.

You see tons of Civics on the expressway (LIE) but very few Si but when I do see them they're mostly sedans nowadays (makes owning a Si coupe even more unique).

I must say that 8th gen. Civic Si's aren't too common here. But I discovered that Civic hybrids are common for taxis and people who live in the, ironically, posh side of town. What I don't understand is that I rarely see regular 8th non-Hybird 8th gen Civics in the posh side of town. It's like these people are trying to make a statement like I'm rich and environmental.
