What would you say is better comfort wise and why? A stock teg or the Fg3?

In terms of overall comfort, the FG3 beats the DC4 (in stock form) by a landslide. It all comes down to the difference in age. The 3rd gen Integra was probably one of the best daily drivers to have back in the day, but it just doesn't compare to the current gen Civic. The FG3's seats are comfortable, the cabin is quiet, and the two-tier instrument panel make the 9th gen Civic a very nice place the be. If that's not enough convincing, I drove Lana from Los Angeles to Vancouver over the summer and recently from Los Angeles to Austin with no problems whatsoever. The 9th gen Civic is a fantastic platform, whether it's for daily driving, road trips, or track duty.

The ride would've been more comfortable with the stock wheels, but we couldn't ride looking lame like that. :mrgreen:
