Back in the Honda family-What should I name my GK5??
About 2-3 years ago I got rear ended in my 97 Honda Civic EK Hatchback CX after only owning her for 6 months. I was so heartbroken after pouring my heart and soul into the car in those few months fixing everything mechanically wrong with her and moved on to aesthetic changes I wanted on her. She was SO much fun, but even if I had taken her on a salvage title she wouldn't have been safe enough to drive my kids around in.
I went through a couple other hondas, a 98 DX Civic hatch that was clapped, a 2005 Civic SI hatch with the funky console shifter and a WILD body kit on it and then traded the SI for a truck to start a lawn care company. After a few years of doing that and being diagnosed with a rare genetic condition, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, I was unable to continue the physically taxing labor anymore. So I traded my truck for this Passion Berry Pearl 2015 Honda Fit EX that needed some love to keep her on the road. Im SO excited to have a "project Slo-Kart" as I like to refer to my honda hatchbacks, back in my life again to actually enjoy the act of driving again. Its so visceral an experience when you carry 40-50-60 plus MPH around a corner and the car eats the corner up and begs for more.
The slate is clean and unmodified at this moment giving me ultimate freedom to reclaim the wild look I had on my Dark Amethyst Pearl Civic Hatch with the Whale tail/ducktail spoiler (any links or leads to that if anyone here has one or knows where to find it for a reasonable price lemme know! much appreciated) and the same US WHEEL 021 Star wheels to give it that outrageous fitment I enjoyed before.
