heres the link, just go to prelude sh

Corvette Z28, huh?
FWD Miata?
I hope the Prelude SH w/ ATTS would handle better than a junk contour & 318i. the only reason is because it is electronically assisted.

It something called physics that give a FWD poor handling from the start - front wheels doing too much.

If FWD were so great, Ferrari, Lambos, Top Fuel drag cars, F1, etc. would ALL be FWD.

damn where is my mind at? twice i messed up, whats going on? it's the rwd camaro z28, and the rwd mazda miata to correct my mistakes. no offense but your excuse for it to have atts is pretty lame, either way u look at it, the prelude is still a fwd vehicle plain and simple. kind of reminds me of the excuse guys with domestics gives when a honda kicks thier butt, "thats not fair, that piece of crap civic is lighter than my mustang." most will probably agree with me on this statement, a win is a win, and a fwd is a fwd, no if's, and's, or but's. also just fyi, i do like some domestics and some imports, so i consider my opinions and facts to be unbiased. hopefully this time everything is correct.
oh one more thing, we're kind of off the thread subject so lets get back on track shall we?

I think if Honda did re-introduce the CRZ it would be bad ass. I'm sure they could come up with some killer new design but with the same basic design. But, if they did, you would see a million of them on the road.

Re: how many of u would like honda to reintruduce the crx again

i say, if they are aiming to stay true to what the crx is, a sports car, yes. on the other hand if they, those at honda, arent going to put as much thought into it then no. it has to be an honest effort to not mess up one of the best cars ever produced. i saw a picture of a crx concept car for 2005 and i must say that it looked dangerously awesome. i saw it and almost needed a new pair of pants.

Re: how many of u would like honda to reintruduce the crx again

and for the fwd vs. rwd argument. of course rwd by theory would be physically better for handling but you have to realize that many things can be proven a million times on paper but cause people to have flashbacks of hiroshima in real life. boom. and dont worry about lambos never having fwd cause you will probably never get a chance to drive one anyway...

Yeah, even compared to the Del Slo the CRX is a much purer car, more of a drivers car, I love it. A new CRX wouldn't be like this sadly.

Re: how many of u would like honda to reintruduce the crx again

Siz I have to call you out on this one. Hondas are meant to carry around japanese people to work and back. Since everything in the country is smaller and more compact (including the ppl) then the cars are smaller. Most are designed for them and adapted for us.

honda

honda crxes are ugly. my cuz had one and i set it on fire cause it was a waste of the 800 he paid for it with that 4 cyclinder thing they call a motor in it. hopefully honda and acura go out of business and let those cars all crash in to walls cause they are a waste of the AMERICAN scrap that we send over every day. just think your honda is made from some junky's old thrown away home. such a waste of money from those stupid rice rockets or whutever you call them. as for the crx leave that old jolopy were it is " in the junkyards of america."

Re: honda

HAHAHA I see alot more probes from the early 90's than I EVER see Hondas of any year in the junkyards. And if you still dont catch what I am saying.

There are more hondas still on the road.

In the junkyard? I've only ever run two probes, beat em both, what a joke. I guess you call ours rice rockets as yours is a domestic brick. The probe was marketed as being this great car due to being designed by a woman, thats its claim to fame? The gender of the designer? Wow.... thats uhm, great...

oh well, atleast with our cars, it doesnt sound like its some kinda anal thing, i mean... probe... come on, i'm sure ppl can think of some jokes about that really easily hehe

and actually, the j/ys up here have more fords then hondas, and most hondas have been ruined like by getting slammed into a such, most fords have a fine body (except the rust) so it musta been then engine that let go, ah well, have fun with ur probe, i'll stick with my honda
