I do not believe that any modification ever could make a Honda civic 'cool'
I want your opinion on this
I think I can find a way to squeeze out some mental gymnastics by which I can technically agree.
Oh, I've got it!
There's a stock EG Civic I see around sometimes, and it's the most basic spec that can be found - not the rarer, imperceptibly better looking facelifted model, not equipped with any cool option nor modification nor even alloy rims, preserved too poorly to be mint and not poorly enough to be heroic. Exactly like this picture I found looking up "civic" in a used car ad aggregator and sorting by cheapest.
And every time I see it I go "Civic! :D", like in one of my main's greatest posts.
Maybe the surprising rarity of hatchbacks of this generation is a factor (though local popularity hasn't quelled my fondness of Suzuki jeeps), but whatever the case, one arguably cannot modify that Civic in a way that makes it cool to me, per the logic by which something cannot become what it already is.
But regarding the intended meaning of "Civics aren't cool cars and no modification could make them such", well, not only could we be touching their bare metal and still not have a common ground (It's an electrics pun. It's devastating. You're devastated right now.), I disagree so hard that I am willing to go over every Civic and not just show a cool modified example, but even argue that the factory itself churned out something cool.
That's right. I'm doing a SERIES. That's how wrong you are.
Note for the poor-watersporting audience: Just because I'm not the type to cowardly shield myself from criticism by rattling out "i personally believe"s and "in my opinion"s doesn't mean I have the delusion to be dishing out statements of fact. Assertive statements the likes of the line above are to be taken as the friendly jest they are. Someone beat you to taking it seriously anyway, and community feedback about it was starkly negative.

I'd like to thank the Fenton family are master manipulators and Danny has learned from his family some know about their manipulative tendencies more than others in the family such as:
Jack Fenton:
He is blissfully unaware of his belated manipulation almost annoyingly so (scratch almost it's totally annoying) he uses his adorable naivety to play into people's hearts to get exactly what he wants which is partly why they're OSHA violation filled house still stands on city blocks
Danny blessed with his mother's youth and soft round facial features aid him in this respect Jack didn't outright teach him how to be manipulative in this tactic Danny just kind of picked it up by watching silently taking notes throughout his life
Madison Fenton:
Maddie is terrifying when it comes to her manipulation she has the smile of a goddess but the aura of an overprotective mother Bear. Not only is she a black belt in karate but she also knows how to use what's most closest to her and burn everything to the ground before your eyes in order to avenge her family's honor and or pride
Danny learns how to be just as overprotective if not more and maybe a bit overbearing over his found family after the accident. so scared that he might lose them with all the misfortune he attracts on a daily basis He's come close to pulling what his mother does when burning the things of Vlad loves most before his eyes but he can't bring himself to do it knowing that thing Vlad knows most is his own mother and he knows he wouldn't be able to hurt her hard enough to hurt Vlad without hurting himself in the process He's not willing to take that sacrifice
Jasmine Fenton
Jazz is much like her mother in the respect of being overprotective just not as much as Danny (post accident) or Maddie unlike her mother Jasmine prefers a more psychological root as her first action instead of a physical one at an early age Jasmine started to hyper fixate on The psychological aspect of manipulation thus she has thrown herself into studies and all the ways to tear a man apart from the mind alone she can be almost sadistic in this respect if it includes avenging a family member (mostly Danny or Danny's found family) she can be downright terrifying this becomes even more apparent when she becomes Justice of the Ghost Kings high council because her ghostly ability includes illusions and the mind and that can only lead to breaking a man beyond repair
Danny being raised by his older sister due to his parents accidental neglect knows far more about the human brain than anything else. He knows how to tear apart a man from the mind as well this only gets worse post accident because not only can he take apart your mind with psychological warfare but some of his threats won't be as baseless he could threaten to rip out your heart before the accident but he couldn't actually do that until post accident All intake is for him to go intangible place a hand on your beating heart and whisper the threat and you'd be psychologically scarred for years
(Jazz has watched him do this to people! She is incredibly proud!)
