A lot of these people didnt get their cars from their "daddy", me being one of them. Alot of the 19,20 year olds bought M3s and other cars with their own money. I being one of them. Just because all you can afford is a Civic DX, that doesnt make us or you any better than anyone. What makes a person superior when it comes to cars is knowledge and driving ability. Saying that a Honda even compares, or is even in the same class as a BMW is just ridiculous. Yes, you can make a Honda 10 seconds in the 1/4... but what if that BMW did the same set up as you have, and was orginally faster to begin with? Stock for stock (which is where i think the best car should be decided) Hondas dont stand a chance... And for the "you drive the bottom of the barrel porsche" comment, I personally would rather drive any clean Porsche than a supped up Honda anyday... After all... when all is said and done, its still an economy car....
These opinions arent the same as everyone else on DTM, I was just posting this so people wouldnt think that we are a bunch of rich 16 year olds who dont know how to drive. And yes, I hate them too.

Why are you even comparing Honda v BMW and Porsche? Are you stupid? Noone on here is saying that Honda is better. But I think you need to get your facts straight. The NSX can rip any BMW a new one in a track setting (except for perhaps an M3, but that's different), the TL is a much better car in every respect except its handling in a track setting than the 3-series, and the S2000 will tear apart a $45,000 Z4 3.0i or a Boxster. I guess you aren't knowledgable enough that Honda is probably the greatest engine maker in the world, or don't think that most of us are knowledgable enough to realize that we'd rather have a BMW or Porsche over any of our Hondas. That's obvious. The issue, once again, is the collective immaturity of your community that's been demonstrated.
You sentence about what makes people better...you're a little skewed. Buying a car with your own money does make you better, at least in my opinion. The feeling of buying a car with your own hard earned money is much more satisying than being given a car...I've experienced both. And your knowledge, from what I've seen, is shit. So don't talk about that

Stock for stock? Who cares? If we compared stock cars to other stock cars, we'd be doing what Car and Driver and Road and Track do every day...it's pointless. How many cars do you come across on the street, or at a track event that are stock? Some of your members think that EVERY honda/acura is slow and worthless, because they are slow from the factory. I know about cars, I know about racing, I know how to drive, I know how to do all my own work...I've been around the block a few times. I'm not some automotive newbie trying to talk shit, like the people from your board starting this little altercation. I know the technology and engineering that goes into both Porsche and BMW, and the prestige associated with both companies. They build world class sports cars, but I think you should give credit where it's due when a Honda/Acura beats the pants off of one. It comes down to the idea of respect. Many people demand respect from us, but don't give it in return...complete bullshit. Just like you, saying that no matter what, a Honda will always be an economy car. How many economy cars do you know making over 300 hp? As for my comment about the Boxster, I stand by it. I would never drive one, even if it was given to me. If I'm going to spend money on a Porsche, I'm not going to settle for the wannabe Porsche...I'm going up towards the top of the line. I'd take an M3 any day over the Boxster, and numerous other cars. We do realize you have other cars affiliated with your site, just like we do here. The person causing the trouble, however, apparently has a porsche and BMW, which started the debate.

And the IDIOT that linked it, is a little pussy boy who was rejected from this board for acting like a dumb ass. Banned, and even made fun of for trying to get pitty out of us when he was put in jail for a some stupid shit he did in his crappy CRX.
