Prelewd... I just hope you are not like the as*hole honda owners around here that aren't logical. It's as simple as a performance car isn't FWD, even honda knows this (S2K and NSX). Everyone has their taste, I've always like sports cars, and since I could never have a Vette, I got what Chevy intended as its alternative. But a Civic hatch w/ a B18 or an H22 is by NO MEANS a sports car... why can't they just get it.
and i hope you are not one of those ignorant camaro owners around here that aren't logical.

FWD cars can be made to handle. they can be made to compete in autocross events, and larger sanctioned track racing events, both of which (last time i checked) are sports. many even compete against similarly tuned BMWs and win.

they might not be a true sports car, but the definition of which is relavant to how you were raised, and what you have driven in the past. personally, i can't afford an NSX, so i drive what honda intended as it's alternative: the prelude.

like i have said before, do not discount a car based merely on the fact that it's FWD.
