Actually i found it to be the same as any other car except exotics. It's just that with some cars people are more willing to just drop random parts in their cars that have little or no R&D behind em. You want an exhaust that is made completely out of titanium, you're gonna have to pay for it. No matter what car.

I bought quality(=good enough for me), inexpensive parts and am satisfied.
RUFF wheels
DNX exhaust
Motordyne spacer used, cheap
2nd hand headers and testpipes
I custom made my sub box
DO ALL OF YOUR INSTALL!!

1) You can turn the Z anytime with the turn on a key
2) You can ride ur Z rough and she'll just smile back at you
3) It doesn't ride it you take her for a test ride before you maker her yours
4) She will never gain weight

meh, it's not too bad. There were a crapload more Civis sold last year than Z's. That alone makes prices higher.
But it's relative, prices are pretty competative. A JWT popcharger is only like 125 bucks and it makes the car sound better and perform better. Suspension parts aren't that much more than other cars. Turbo kits are expensive, no matter what the car. I don't really think that it's that much more $ to mod the Z.
Of course, American cars and Civics will always be cheaper

I just wonder what is up with all the little expensive things out there. I want the pieces to go on the headlights so it wraps the hood in but they are like $60 unpainted. That is just freakin ridiculous for something like that. $100 shift *****? You've got to be kidding me.
