What's It Like Without Vtec? 1991 Civic Si (EF Hatch) - Hot Take

This is the first video from our day out at the Great Lakes Vintage Honda collection! Today we take a look at a very nice 1991 Honda Civic Si and answer the question: Does it need Vtec to be fun? The color is Tahitian Green for anyone wondering.

Note on the score: I accidentally gave it an 8 when it should be a 7. I reflected this on the score sheet.

This video is recorded with binaural audio. Wear headphones for the best experience :)
