    If you really want to know why so many people hate Hondas, look at the early 40s. That generation was so used to hating the Japanese, they just carried it over to the baby boomers. The baby boomers that were brainwashed into "buy American" brainwashed their kids into "buy American" and we are where we are.

          Bad driver=bad car.

          Length of ownership has nothing to do with anything.

            I've been to Cali. I am from the border. There are shit tons of Hondas around there. Tuned and otherwise. Same with AZ which is 2nd in tuner cars next to Cali. Don't try and make it look like I am the one who is not travelled.

The programmable tcs system for my car/cars.

              You don't post your opinion. You hate. Just like all the dickheads you try and cut down with your stupid signatures.

              You go onto a Honda site and try to "prove" how your "SRT4" is better than every car ever made.

              1) It isn't the fastest car made, not even when tuned.

              2) It will ALWAYS be a FWD econcar with a lot of HP.

              3) It is not faster than a Corvette, and it doesn't double the HP from a tune.

              I believe the reason why my last cb7's handled so well was the amount that i put into them and the fact that they have no torque or power to actually propel itself through a corner at a high rate of speed so ofcourse it was able to handle a turn. As for my car im afraid to floor it into the corners as with any boosted car with power flooring it into a corner is a no,no its always brake first corner is throttle out of the turn. As for allmotor brake corner throttle in turn then throttle out.

              I will once again repeat myself...since you seem to have the absorbance of a concrete wall.

              The above quoted statements are your own words. Don't try and tell me I haven't done my research because that would imply that you haven't either. After all, you ARE the one who made the comment in the first place.

              ANY HP you can't put the ground is USELESS. I could prove it to you using physics, but you wouldn't listen or understand anyway so it would be a waste of my time.

So basically your out of the game yes? as for the 300k well to each their own thats with any other car but what about the maintenance issues. Its a what 15-17 year old car for the amount your spending to maintain it you could honestly get another better car.
                No, but if I am going to sacrifice comfort, I am going to get a REAL car. Like an Elise, a 911, a Ferrari, a Vette etc.

                I am not going to give up 2 power windows so I can drive a neon with a hood scoop and a turbo.

                P.S. I have spent less than 1 car payment in maintenance EVERY year since I have owned the car, which will be 10 years in December. In over 200K miles I have STILL paid less than 1 years worth of SRT4 payments on maintenance. Most Hondas break because the owners are cheap and put garbage auto parts on them, or they are stupid and think they are "tuners" when in fact they are not. Or more commonly, they just don't maintain them at all in which case they STILL usually run for 200-300K.

                Even though theres nothing truely wrong with having the car and keeping it if you truely love it. I basically gave all that up and moved on. honestly theres nothing really different about the difference in srt4 and the cb7 except the seats. The seats ont eh srt4 are indeed race inspired and the cb7 comfort. I dont care about the comfort i wanna have the feel like im in a racecar allday everyday because im used to it.
                I guess that is where I am different. I don't want to pretend I am in something I am not. If I want to feel like I am in an actual race car, then I will go build an actual race car, and take it to the track.

                If you dont wanna feel that way then thats on you yaknow cant really talk you out from not wanting to do what you wanna do so thats how it is. I can say atleast ive been there fro both sides of the bridge and i went to the best candidate which better suited me. And im sure many others will follow to their car that best suits them cb7 or not.
                This is generally true for most people. It isn't your choice that is the problem. Nobody gives a shit that you own a neon. It is your constant douchebaggery and degradation of other people's choices on this site. It is unfortunate that you aren't secure enough in your own decision making to just let it be. And don't say you are, because that is bullshit. If you were really truly secure with yourself, and happy with your purchase, you wouldn't care what anyone thought and would thus not feel the need to try and rub your "superiority" in everyone's face.

                Period.

                  I dont think everyone hates hondas. Its the driver that throws it off and retards. I know people I talk to they support my car its old but it runs. Then you have the other ignorant assholes when you give them props. Its all a mentality thing some people are easy to talk to the rest are closed minded. Nothing gyou can do. Plus fast and the furious stereotypes are fail. Everyone has to be the hardcore street racer now.

                    Which is why I'm trying to stop it before it gets outa hand, I'm not a mod so I can't physically do anything about these kind of issues. So I TRY to go the nice way about it.

                    BTW honestly people, now I know why some people have such high post counts, Is it really necessary to have 3-4 posts in a row
                    It's not hard to put several quotes into one post
                    If you aren't part of the solution, you are part of the problem.

                    Your post has added nothing, which makes it just as worthless as the people who post 5 times in a row. Not to mention the fact that this is posted in Off Topic, which means the posts don't count anyway.

                    P.S. If you don't think I have earned my post count, I challenge you to go read EVERY one of my posts.

                        Good point.
                        Haha we all know what happened to the "look" of the street racer scene after F&F came on the scene

                            You need to read.

                            edit:
                            Honda has been around since just after ww2. They started making cars in the 60s. They released the Civic in America in 1972.

                            None of this has to do with old people's opinions.

                              Off topic is irrelevant like you say - Yes
                              Though I have noticed this in other sections as well, Also I never said that you diddn't earn your count.

                              So ummm, what is the solution? Ban Sparkle? Or are you saying I'm a problem because I stood up and said something?

                              The first post of Sparkles was this:

                              Then there is several posts afterwards what I would call provoking. Call it what you want, Just the way i see it.
