Peice Of Junk Hondas

Just don't put on an obnoxious body kit and fart trumpet and 12 foot spoiler and cover it with gaudy stickers! You still need to spend a mint to get it to go fast, I hear the Honda guys brag about running 10's and 9's even 8's and 7's get real guys! There are 2 Hondas that run 8's and one has been converted to rear drive, as well neither is a real world car just a seat with tube chassis a fiberglass body and a $100,000.00 engine that can only run a race or two and is payed for by a sponsor.

im with you all the way man. i wasnt defending ricers, i was just trying to put things in perspective. it was more an attack on someone saying "turbos and nitrous are cheating"

i drive a honda, im proud of it. its quick, could be quicker, but i know running 12's is a pipe dream. ill be happy to limp down the track in low 15's.

but im just as impressed with a 10 second import as i am with ten second domestic.

What's important to me is the fun to drive factor. Frankly, stock Hondas are not fun to drive. I'm not saying quality is not important, but I won't even take a second look at a car if it's not fun to drive.

VW make V5 engines, but not AWD versions of the V5 cars, as far as I know.

It's either inline or flat 5 not V.

Also, Porsche and Subaru are starting to make em too.

define "fun to drive" even when i was driving a stick shift civic/accord i felt it was pretty fun.. but then again i drive an auto.. everytime i test drive a stick it seems fun as hell

[lazysmurff]

and please understand honda isnt limited to just civic and accords, i invite you to drive a prelude or an s2000 and tell me that they arent fun to drive.

how did "honda what" make all this arguing and bullshit talk of 10 sec civics and beefy v-8's and shit? can we really not reallize that everone has differant needs and wants? that you can make a slow muscle car and a fast import? god people lets open our eyes and see beyond our preconsived notins and appriciate what others like.

With enough time and effort, Civic's can go just as fast (if not faster) than a domestic V8, V10 or whatever. A buddy of mine has a Civic coupe than runs low 12s in the 1/4 mile and that is his daily driver.

You can make anything fast with enough $$

So.. Your saying a Civic can do a 6 second 1/4 mile like a fully modded Hemi can!?

No I don't think so.
