Totally true, but the Civic was $34k and my E63 was under $30k. I don’t really care about fair, it’s more money for a car I like less. That’s about all I care about.

As for the body stuff, apparently the hood scoop routes air over the engine and out the fender vents, I think it reduces drag and lift. I’ve seen a few guys who have swapped over the standard Civic hatchback upper panel to eliminate the wing, it looks ok but a little naked.
