How much horsepower does a Honda Civic have?

I want to build a “ten-second” car like they drive in *The Fast and the Furious*. I know they’re all driving around in Civics when they do their robbery scenes, but I didn’t realize Civics were that powerful. How much horsepower does a Civic have?

It’s easy to be confused about how much horsepower a
Honda
Civic has after watching scenes like those in the Fast and Furious franchise. But keep in mind, the cars Dominic and his crew are driving in the movie have been completely rebuilt to do what they do.

car insurance
if you plan to take your Civic to the races. Why not let
