Then you people wonder why I don't like Honda ...

I think this needs a qualifier: Honda owners who think they own a fast $15,000 car. :P

I don't dislike *any* car company. I like some more than others, but I think they've all got something to contribute. Mass-produced examples of what *shouldn't* be mass-produced, for example. As for Honda, I think the CRX, NSX, and S2000 are not even in the same league as...um...everything else they have.
 
last night while tooling around here in Cali i saw a CRX with a huge vinle decal saying TURBO. I snapped a pic but it was late.
I'll post em when I get home

You don't even dislike KIA??? :eek:

I consider the first-generation Honda Odyssey the best Honda ever built, which is not saying extremely much, since even the Previa is better. My problem with Honda is that for anything they make, there are at least two vehicles better in its class. Frustrating.

CRX? Ha!

I don't have anything against Kia itself. I wouldn't be caught dead in their cars, but why hold something against a company who consistently puts out perfect examples of...well, the whole yin-yang thing. For so many good cars, there must be an equal -- if not greater -- number of just plain awful cars. ;)

Honda was *always* about economy first. You've got your economy 2-seater roadster, your mini-SUV, your economy sport-coupe...your economy economy car. :P

Well then where do the Pilot and 240-hp Odyssey fit in? :P :D

High engine output a quality car does not make. I refer you again to the S2000.... And the WRX, for that matter. You'd think that if they were going to send 217 lb-ft out from the driveshaft, at least *some* of the components attached to it would be able to handle that much power. :banghead:
