The first show that we saw Hector's 2k1 Civic LX, our heads turned and we damn near tripped over an empty grape-drink bottle. Even among other show cars, the custom paint and bodywork stood out. This Civic from Central Florida Motorsports gleamed in the sun plus it demanded you to come look closer and upon further inspection under the hood, you'll find it's bay is clean enough to eat off of. And don't you dare think this beauty is just for show -- the turbo/nitrous setup lurking under the bonnet is what puts the 'Motorsports' in Central Florida Motorsports.
