amen.

while hondas do have a great potential to become very quick cars, they were intended first to be very quality cars. not to menton reliable, inexpensive, popular and fun to drive. many american cars are simply built for horsepower and overkill on speed. nobody on earth needs as much power that is put into american hot rods, but they are sold, and then sent back to the shop every 4 months to be fixed. ever wonder why there is such a giant aftermarket for imports and not domestics? people see the inexpensive, quality base of a honda and know they can work them up to be supercars, sure you could pay thousands and blow him away, but at the moment he is gonna kill you in a drag simply by the fact that honda never intended to have a muscle car like a thunderbird, mustang, camaro, corvette and whatnot. they intended to have great cars that are just enjoyable to go out and drive for the sake of driveing.
