These cars do have VTEC, although dang near at redline. k20c2 hits VTEC at 6500 for the automatic transmission CVT, but redlines at 6700. Definitely better on the 6MT, as it hits VTEC at 6100, so you get a little more breathing room before shifting.
I almost bought this, but I ended up buying a Camry instead lmao. I could only have one car right now, and gas is quite expensive now so a Hybrid is a more sensible choice. Though I occasionally punch in the air everytime I saw a boost blue civic sport drove by haha
This car does have VTEC but it kicks in at the very end of the RPM range unfortunately. A single modification that really does wake the car up is an ECU tune with Ktuner or Hondata since you can improve the pedal response since it can be a bit sluggish, you can also lower the VTEC engagement point to have the extra boost in power in a larger RPM range, you can also increase the redline of the car etc. This car with the manual transmission, a few bolt ons, and an ECU tune is a very very fun and reliable daily (potentially could have similar performance to the 1.5T with a few mods but with linear power delivery and no forced induction)
Sport Mode on the Sport Touring turns it off automatically. Look into Ethos D3fy and Resist. It keeps that shine on the car and protects it. I prefer the Civic over the Acura myself. Type-R is the dream. A Manual I don't get, but i guess I have to try it out one day to see why everyone loves them. I like how you review it. 2yrs and i have half the miles you have lol.
I own a 22 boost blue hatchback 2.0 L for 1 year as my very first car now. She’s my daily for work and my dream car.

I have both a Camry and civic and I like both. But I like the civic more because it’s lighter and more fun to throw around
Hello, What state are you in?😊

@@MrChickenspit great gas mileage it’s too good
