Re: Honda haters?
I am a Die hard American Classic enthusiast but I dont hate imports with a passion, I simply dislike them. My problem with hondas and other ricers is that They are so widely available, everyone and their little brother has one and because they sound like someone done pissed off a bumble bee. Also because all these kids get them put some plastic wheel covers on them and a 4 foot wing on the back and think their cool. One more thing for all you performance minded import owners and your sacred wings. Think about it, the point of a spoiler/wing is to increase downforce right? but all your imports with the exception of a few like the eagle talon are front wheel drive so putting more downforce on the back end thereby lifting the front end up will give you LESS traction NOT more Giant wings screw up Hondas they dont help them.

Re: Honda haters?
These people that hate Hondas are feeling jealous. I think. I mean, don't these Chevy Malibu drivers feel like dumbasses when their pieces fail after 50k miles? Hondas are made to last, and thats why they are expensive, which alienates all kinds of cheap people. Eat that.

Re: Honda haters?
Read any car magazine or speak with owners of recent GM products and tell me that GM is back in the game. GM is still tying its shoes while everyone else is out playing.

I used to be the same way you are ya know? I used to swear that ford cars suck, specifically the mustang, but you know what? I don't think that way anymore. Just because there is a vehicle I would rather have in place of a mustang, doesnt mean that they are crap, it just means that I favor the other vehicle more.

2. On a FWD you want more traction over your drive wheels, that spoiler does nothing for you. During a drag launch your weight transfers to the back and your front wheels just spin. Do you really want to increase the weight over your rear wheels? 3. Getting an exhaust because you like the sound of it isnt wrong. Its your car and your money. The line ends there... too many people cross that line when they overestimate the gains of said exhaust, and consider their cars "sports cars" becuase they sound such a way. |

Re: Re: Re: Re: Honda haters?
Well, we had just gotten the car and I went over everything and checked them out and there was a problem in the gaskets; a bit of a defect, so I replaced it. It's the GM model. Like I say, it was a defective gasket, which come about every once in a while.
