honda doesnt tune their engines towards high rpm hp to "go as fast as possible," they do it to extract horsepower out of a small engine. the only way to do that is by extending the rev range.

1. I wish Honda of America would stop de-tuning and taking out all the good stuff they got overseas when they reach our shores.
2. Bring over the ITR, CTR, NSX-R...share the wealth.
3. When they bring over the good stuff...see #1.
4. Bring back the Del Sol, CRX, Accord Hatchback and Prelude.

i love honda motor co. and everything, and i wanted to stay a honda customer...but here goes:
* be less conservative with the designs...it's ok for the bread-n-butter accord and civic lines, but not everything has to look restrained
* how about a RWD 6-cylinder with a 6spd, under $40k?? 2 or 4 doors, either one will sell
* why undertire almost every car in the lineup?
* redesign the NSX!!! the facelift isnt enough (not like i can afford one anyway)
* ok ok, we all know about VTEC and high RPM power. but is it neccessarily a good thing when "no torque" becomes synonimous with honda?
comment or flame on.

2) RWD 6-cylinder under $40,000 is unlikely because no such platform exists...I'd rather see a RWD V8 $45,000 car.
3) Saves money...rather have weak tires than cheap plastics on the dash.
4) It's coming.
5) i-VTEC
