Most Honda's do accelerate slow... However, as a former FORD owner and brand new HONDA owner you've certainly got my attention! What are some of the "crap products" that Honda has made, I'm curious? Before plunking my hard earned cash down for a Honda I researched the heck out of these things. I asked everyone that I knew that owned a Honda if they would buy a Honda again and they all said YES!!! Nothing but accolades for Honda (ok, let's say 90% accolades if you count opinions in forums like this one)! Excellent quality, long life (I personally know 3 people who own a Honda with more than 250,000 miles on it!), and great value! By the way, I didn't buy a Honda because it's fast. I bought mine because it's the best overall value I could find. That's why so many young people buy them too. Example? the Civic is by far the best car for the money... unless you rice it up. If you need to go fast, you'd be better off (money wise and power wise) saving up for a car that was MEANT to go fast! For basic transportation to and from work or school the CIVIC Rules!! Of those I found in forums like this one that DIDN'T like Honda, most cited the "cheap" looking tail fins and ground effects that plague the streets. Yes, the ricer group really pisses people off with loud ass 20" tailpipes that prove NOTHING except that their car can FART!! And yes, Honda's have been a HUGE part of this scene unfortunately. I mean, it's one thing to mod your ride so it can actually DO SOMETHING, but you'll never get a 1.3L Honda Civic to blow doors off anything. It will only blow noise. Period. However, I didn't buy the Civic either. I needed a vehicle with VERSATILITY!! Can you tell from my avatar which one I went with? Yep, the ELEMENT! Fast it's not, race car it's not, but it can hold it's own. Too many good points to list here... I LOVE THIS THING! Nuff Said. :) FORD Cars? Now, being that I owned a FORD I knew I wasn't going to buy another one, NO-SIR-EE-BILLY-JOE-BOB!!! I've been burned 1 too many times. I don't think I need to argue to loudly about the quality of FORD cars. FORD TRUCKS? Last year I made a HUGE mistake where I work and bought 4 FORD 26,000 GVW trucks... not only was the order 8 MONTHS LATE, but my company has had NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS with them. Worse yet, each of the trucks shipped out to our branch locations, and NOTHING is covered under WARRANTY!! Very VERY disappointed. I look like an ASS for buying FORD for my company! NEVER AGAIN (As If I'd Still Have A Job If I Tried)!!! Just my 2 cents. PEACE! LEGO LEGO MY E 08-09-2004, 12:05 AM Before you FORD fans start flaming in here, let me just say for the record... Pre 1980 Fords were built OUTSTANDINGLY. I LOVE classic FORDS, especially 1978 Ford F series/Bronco and Mustang (not the droppings of a Mustang with the II badge)! They don't make 'em like they used to. But who does, you ask? Um... Honda?

No leaking oil, no rattling, shaking voilently, starts up fine, drives on long period's of time if wanted. Still runs a 15.10 at the track BONE STOCK. Brand new paint, wheels, tires, and interior. But no motor or rear end ( i changed the transmission because i didnt want a automatic). My next car? I dont think i'll need another one for a while.... What were you saying about Ford shoebox? thunderbird muscle 08-12-2004, 09:30 PM I drove my old 3.8 ford with no water in the radiator for 2 miles and I never had a problem with it until I crashed into that Escort that pulled in front of me! LEGO MY E 08-12-2004, 10:14 PM .... ...What were you saying about Ford shoebox? Hehehe... good one, shoebox! Oh wait... you mean ME, huh? :) Well... rather than making me repeat myself, you could scroll up a few notches instead, but here it is again to save you the trouble; "FORD Cars? Now, being that I owned a FORD I knew I wasn't going to buy another one... I don't think I need to argue to loudly about the quality of FORD cars" Again? "...I don't think I need to argue too loudly about the quality of FORD cars." Take this statement as you will. And I never said that ALL FORDS are poor quality, my friend. I don't think it is fair to bash on a vehicle that I know nothing about, but I know plenty about the FORDS I've owned and I can say they were all plenty crap. I need a reliable vehicle. And that's not all. I need a vehicle I can get into without something FALLING OFF! I was so G@D DAM& SICK of $hit falling off my vehicle or breaking with NORMAL use!! I can also repeat comments from friends I've known over the years who will NEVER buy another FORD because they've had similar experiences. In all fairness though, I've heard some of these same comments for ANYTHING made by GM after 1980. But strangely enough, nowhere NEAR as many negative comments for the Honda. That's why I gave Honda a chance. If I get burned, I'll never buy Honda again. But as it stands I sleep well at night, and never worry if my car will start in the morning... something I couldn't say about my FORD! BTW, Congratulations! If you have 240,000 miles on your Stang, all I can say is that you are very lucky, that you really take good care of your vehicle, and that I am very impressed! I suspect that many other FORD owners aren't so lucky though.

Old models: I've only seen ONE good ford out there, one of my ex-G/F onws it 1991 Ford Thunderturd with a 3 speed tranny and 3.8L V6, the odometer stopped working at 138 thousand miles and that was like 5 or 6 years ago, other than that one car EVERY ford I've drivien has fucked up in the small amount of time I was driving it!

Most Fords(Alpines, Contours, 90's F-150's...)were rough in the 80's and 90's, but Fox body Mustangs were ripping up Vettes. Their trucks are unmatched(except the named few) and really havent had much competition except a Hemi truck(which is it a real hemi-head engine?) here and some Japanese wanna-be's there and Chevy out of the truck picture. I own a ford and its been sitting in a field for 30 years and its more solid than most import and most domestic cars i see. Ford has a legendary Mustang to be proud of as its frontrunner, while what does Honda have? FWD Civic in which most find a fartcan up its little exhaust system, Mopar has...a four door car masquerading as a Charger.Subaru has some kickass cars, and them and the Z are the only Japanese cars i have a lot of respect for. Pontiac, an Australian "american legend" and a FWD 5.3L V8 GXP in which the front wheels are made wider than the rear wheels(oh how innovational), Chevy has one good car, the Vette, the SSR sucks as a replacement for the Camaro.

TRD2000 05-12-2005, 06:29 PM sorry.. above... not behind With the introduction of subcompact cars in the 1960’s, Volkswagen and Japanese car manufacturers put enormous pressure on domestic manufacturers to compete in the American small-car market. The Ford Motor Company (FoMoCo) responded to this import invasion by introducing a new model, called the Pinto, in order to reclaim a large portion of the auto sales in the United States. The Pinto was rushed into production in almost half of the regular time required to develop a new automobile. Prior to production, Ford engineers discovered a major safety hazard on the Pinto: If the car was rear-ended at a speed of 30 miles per hour, the fuel tank would rupture and spill gasoline all over the road around the car. This was discovered only after the assembly-line machines were tooled. It was determined that the cost to change the assembly line would render a huge profit loss for Ford. As a direct result of Ford’s decision to build the Pinto despite its safety problems, several hundred people died or were seriously injured. http://www.pitt.edu/~jwm21/event.html stang351 05-12-2005, 07:28 PM Ford sucks from one mistake? 1PhatCX 05-12-2005, 11:11 PM like stated earlier... ford... atleast they circled the problem! trust me man, my 4 cylinder has killed v-8 mustangs... a ford is nothing special stang351 05-13-2005, 05:46 PM honda's weren't made to be anything special either and besdes, what kind of power does that honda make? To outrun a Mustang you'd need a pretty good power/weight ratio and some good gearing(unless you raced a 74-83 stang) the reason im a ford guy and not a "ricer"(i dont like that word) is because i dont like four-cylinders(i like low end torque and there is no replacement for displacement), i hate the sound of em, stuff like that.

Naturally aspirated? I think not. Even the Turbo honda's running 11's are far and away less than street drivable at that level of power, I kid you not. i would never get a civic but thats because im 6'4" lol and it does take some money to make them go A WHOLE lot of money. This 'tuner' revolution is supposedly based on cheap hot rodding, but once you start actually making power you're either replacing parts left and right, or are spending far too much... still though the major argument that honda haters use is that it takes money to make them fast. You said it yourself. You probably missed what I'm about to say. think about it Meaning, what I have to say :D go buy a 1991 hatchback for $1000 or a used vette for $20,000. What Year/Model Corvette are we talking about? For 20K I could get a high mileage C5 that would set the performance bar pretty high. However when you talk about that much money, you'll need some financing.. More on that later :D for the 19,000 diff you could make that civic outrun, outhandle, outbrake, and simply own the vette. First, with financing from whom? I can't think of anyway you'll get 20K unless you have excellent credit and a house to mortgage... Second, any civic that can run with a vette (or better, outrun it on a track ) is a race car. I'm sure someone would be 'proud' to own it, but that would be rather sad, as it takes that much modification to run with a stock sportscar, that with minor modifications could 'own' the family car, a family car that wouldn't exactly be comfortable or fun to drive everyday, and would probably be unable to run at all on pump gas. and yes, the gt40 was good but dont credit ford too much for that one.they abandoned the car after the first year and left cosworth and some privateers to win most of the races. ford just let them keep the emblem and paintjob to get all the credit for it. Sure. They just paid out the initial cost to get the car running which I'm sure was astoundingly high, by 60's standards, and won with it. Credit is due to the race teams that made it happen both on the track and in the garage.. but Ford paid their way, so we cannot deny them as a company their part and by that, their due. Hjholter3 08-28-2005, 04:22 AM yeah and ford wanted them to put a v6 in the rx7 because it would be cheaper to make.... And would probably not have the reliability issues the rotary is rather well known for, and would probably produce torque the rotary is not known for. mazda said no thank god and stopped making the rx7.... More due to lack of market and demanding, with recalls due to reliability and failure in stock form eating profits. then so many people missed the rotary they made the rx8 and the new rx7! Mazda saw a resurgence in interest in the aformentioned product in the sport compact market and a high interest in the states in imported 'sports cars', and felt they could make some money. Ford SUCK, can't believe they would just wipe out such a unique and influencial car. Mazda wiped the car out, Ford had a negliable interest in the car.

My friend got a 90 Mercury Topaz with that 2.3L I4 and then later switched to a 94 Ford Tempo with the same type of 2.3L I4 Guess what? Both of them F***ED UP at around 80000 miles... And he doesn't race them, nor go over the speedometer's limit. Both of them stalls at red lights all the time... :uhoh: edited: Excuse me, I shouldn't say that word... ummm wow if you use that POS as a determining factor on how well of a company ford is you should think for a minute. A) that engine shares technology with the model T motor, ITS A DAMN PUSH ROD I4! B) that thing was built in mexico back in the early 90s when mexicans were first learning what cars were.(they seem to build things better now) C) If i said honda sucked based on some car they built in the 60s (hondas dark ages) you'd think i was a tard too. Honda's first civic made like 40 hp, whats the big deal? Ford too has had their dark ages. v604mustangjoe 10-12-2005, 11:34 AM About the 3.8 ford v6, i own to of them. Hint: the my username, 2004 v6 mustang. I also own the shitty pre 99 3.8 Litre OHV v6 motor in my 1992 cougar, and it did have the head gaskets problem, but that problem can be solved with a simple change of the head gaskets. Now about the 3.8L 99+ v6, well they have one of those in the 10s, completly STOCK motor, stock automatic transmission with shift kit and torque converter, 8.8 rear end with t-lock. Then they through twin 16g turbos @ 17 psi on it (combined pressure 17psi). The car ran a 10.996. Go into the cars in general, then look at car videos to see the video of it. The car only had to run on 100 octane (i've seen 110 at the gas station before). the only thing changed on the motor was the fuel pump (not on the motor but you get the point) and the fuel injectors. As well it had to be tuned ofcourse. But this proves a point, that the stock cast rods, cast crank, and hypereutectic pistons could handle 17 psi of boost, and 450+ rwhp( about 550 at the motor) NOW THATS BUILT FORD TOUGH. BTW a v6mustang is priced about the same as a civic, and with a few bolt on mods gets better highway gas mileage or as good highway gas mileage. My v6 mustang with a few bolt ons gets about 30 mpg@70 mph. Plus you dont have to feel like a shoe when you get out of a damn civic shoebox. v604mustangjoe 10-12-2005, 12:08 PM The new Mustang has better build quality than any other factory Mustang. check this article: New Mustang (http://www.motorsportscenter.com/article_462.shtml) The Australian Ford Falcon has got to be sold here. check this link Australian Ford Falcon (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=379989) The Ford F-150 has great build quality. well said but dont forget how well built even the 04 was. Ok you guys were ripping on hyaundai and ford but the funny thing is in 2004 both companies tied for having the best built vehicle The 2004 Sonata had only 5 problems for ever 100 vehicles made, by contrast, lexus had 12, the rest of ford had around 15, and toyota had about 20 problems for vehicles out of a hundred built. and the europeans, we wont even mention them, they had about 30+ problems/100. Nissan Morano had 50!!!!! and the lincoln navigator had 50 but thats understandable since it has so many bells and whistles in that thing ofcourse it will have something break. Now the ford Mustang of 2004 had 5/100 as well, tieing the sonata for first place. tractorboy 10-12-2005, 03:55 PM HA HA HE HE A FAMILY IN OUR NEIGHBOORHOOD, THEIR LAST NAME IS FORD...GUESS WHAT THEY ALSO BOUGHT A FORD. what a double negative. ha ha ha he he he G-man422 10-19-2005, 06:37 PM OK then. icedawgs88 01-05-2006, 07:49 PM ford backwards driver returned on foot Chevy4life1985 01-06-2006, 07:14 AM WOW.

It's given us far more reliability than I ever expected from a ford. I think since the car is built for police departments and taxis mainly, Ford made sure to make the car a bit tougher and reliable, even in the non police-interceptor versions. So, not all fords are unreliable, just the vast majority of them. 2_Late_I_Won 08-25-2006, 07:42 AM I have a crown vic (well it's my dads) and it has well over 170K on the clock.

Otherwise, I have a yardful of american pride most notable is my 98 Z28. ...and yes, I can drive it too. GM had some very successful engines. The 250 and 292 I6 were great motors. My dad ran a 250 in his dirt modified, and took track championship with it. You can't knock the 350's they had- the "K" motor and the previous generation 350. Hard to kill even if low on oil. Oh, and the Vortec motors are little screamers too. Hmmm, almost forgot about the 327, my Dad's favorite. I am not a Mostly Old Parts And Rust guy =] but nobody can deny the slant 6, 318, or the hemis for what they have accomplished.
