If you're in the North America, the Si is the fastest; Elsewhere, the Type R.

However, if you're really serious about this (i.e. you're trying to get into the 8s or 7s in the 1/4), you'll probably spend way more on upgrades than you will on the car itself. For example, most likely the engine won't be stock or it'll be fully 'built' (i.e. no oem internals). Therefore, it probably doesn't matter too much which civic you start with, since everything that will make it go really fast will be aftermarket - and by far most of the $ you have sunk into the car will be in aftermarket parts - by the time you're done it'll be a 'Roon Civic'.

that sounds good to me. 'Roon Civic' i like that but im just trying to get a nice 10 or 11 second street car to blow these show offs over here away. do you know any build threads that will help me get started as what modifications i should do to the car first.

Of course we do...but only if you start with an Mkiv Toyota Supra!
