I like lots of different cars. It just so happens that Z cars are one of my favorites. However, that Honda is UGLY. I don't care how fast Johnny soups up a Civic, it is still an ugly Civic. You can make anything go fast with money, patience and more money. The trick is to go fast in car that looks GOOD. Nuf said.

Re: imma race the honda!

Don't get me wrong. Honda makes some strong engines and good looking cars. I like the new S2000 and it's high rpm screamer. The Acura NSX is another quick ride that looks good. I would drive either one would a large smile on my face.

Re: imma race the honda!

Back in the early 70's Honda had a 1000cc little "micro" car while Datsun had a 1.6L family sedan with independant suspension. That's why you see all those old ads about the 510 being a sedan that drives like a sports car. And the 240Z could beat the Porshe of its day for half the cost!
you could get so much more out of an old school Datsun than any other 4-banger.

Today, those 1.8L Hondas are still behind. What does Nissan have? My wife drives an older 2.4L Altima that can waste a Honda. Even the sentra has a 2.0L engine. Only the Acuras have engines that big. And now Nissan has a 3.5L Altima and Maxima. honda is still behind Nissan... and Acura? Well, the Infiniti Q45 V8 could beat any Acura if it wasn't in such a large and heavy car! hehe...

and with the price of the NSX, I think that is considered an exotic car. Compare it to a Ferrari or Viper.

:-P
