---VTEC or i-VTEC...
Still has zero effect on low to middle range torque, and high revs are still needed to take advantage of it. ----
here's another--
v6 mustang is RWD and V6
..... then again, its worthless for real racing..
----
I'm with asiandood... North america gets screwed by just about everyone when it comes to the good imports.
-Accord + Civic type R
-Focus RS / cosworth
-Evo 1-7, and STI ( just now changed)
-Pugeot 206 (highly upgradable, light hatch)
-skyline/ sylvia (although we got the 240... still no sr20det)
-citroen xscara

Just thought of another thing that annoys me about Honda....
DITCH THE FAWKING ACURA BADGE!!
One thing that bothers me about import cars in general is that we get some dumbass engine code as the name of the car while they get a real name overseas......LS430 = Celsior as example.

Nightshade, dotn call me an idiot.
New RSX poor design?
What's bad about it?
Its better than the last gen tegs, adn it doesnt look liek a celica at all. :screwy:
As for the NSX, you should be happy Honda is doing anything with it and not discontinuing it or coming otu with a cheap car that isnt the same level of quailty or performance. They loose money on all of them and the fact that they did a facelift and are actually redesigning it is something to appreciate.

If they hadn't introduced it in the first place and just kept correct badging no one would ever be the wiser and no one would have complained.

If so why would Nissan have Infinity and why would Toyota have Lexus? I think they did it to compete with companies like Ford's Lincoln.
