i dunno about all that. i just think it's a bad ass road race car. if the TSX wasn't so severly underpowered, i'd be driving one of those. the JDM Accord Euro R is my dream car... and as for the STi, no for two reasons. the 06 is ugly as all kinds of fresh hell, and it can't match the performance of the evo. i've seen head to head after head to head, and the evo always makes the STi look bad. the STi understeers like a boat, has more body roll, and the interior actually looks cheaper than the EVO's (which until the 06 EVO, that was hard to do lol) the EVO is just a better car...and my jeebus it's fun lol

I noticed on the dashboard it has three lights: tarmac, gravel, snow. Is there some kind of selector depending on road conditions?
Is this car manual?

Thx

Hmm. It does look better than the STI in a lot of ways.

I used to want one really bad, but with Mitsu being in trouble and all that.... eh.

I don't know. I guess I kind of might want one too a little.

yeah that's the setting for the active center differential. it's got front and rear LSD, and active center diff. tarmac is for street/track, gravel is for low traction like gravel/rain, snow is for snow. there's a button on the dash to select between them. i dont even plan to drive it in the rain tho. im gonna sell my civic Si, and my integra, and my accord will be my back and forth to work/bad weather car. the EVO will be under it's cover while im at work. on my days off tho, i probably wont drive the accord much anymore lol
