Nice car, but instead of making one thread for every car you made, why don’t you just make a single thread for all of your cars?

when i go on wikipedia, there are different pages for the different generations of civic and accord.

This is not wikipedia. Its a rule to not keep making threads for every car i think. I learned couple years ago
