It was indeed me who said something like that 
One experience I can share:
I was driving around in my friend's modded 350Z, and he pulled up next to a light and there was an old early 90s era Civic hatch at the light, he revved, and it was on.
Long story short, the Civic won, and turns out we were going to the same meet. So we check out his car, he has an absolutley STRIPPED interior, and a turbo GS-R motor. He was all bragging about his win, and how is car was daily driven, etc etc.
My response: "Congratulations, you drive a Civic with no air conditioning in Florida. I bet the ladies love that in the summer"

it is one thing to have that as a fun only car, and another to have to drive it everyday.

That was his problem. When all of this was done, he said that it took a good year to learn how to drive it to it's fullest extent. And man, this guy is not your average driver!!

I meant to say a well modded boosted s2000, elise, viper, z06 would own a well modded civic. But, those little hatchback civics can be little buggers.
