I can only say, "I will believe it when I see it" and "It's about time!"

I figured it would be a good time to go grocery shopping. I was right, Store was empty, hardly anybody else there.

Honda lost its interesting personality when it discontinued the S2000. I had an 00 S then an 06 S. I loved them and would have gotten another if they hadn't disappeared. I got a 14 Vette, which I also love for different reasons. I still miss the S2000, though.

The Type R has been good, my ITS is good, but since the S2000, besides arguably the hybrid NSX, Honda cars have continued to underwhelm. Heck, even the NSX underwhelmed until the Type S finally got it to a point where it was arguably a competitive car overall to a McLaren, the R8, some P-cars, etc.

They should give away toasters with most models they sell. Toasters and vanilla extract.

If Honda wanted to add personality, they'd make 2 door wagons for all their cars, and vans. Put manual shift option in all their cars, vans, and trucks. Stop the turbos, and add revs instead.

Next question.

Add personality = here's a bunch of Civic variants (though still fewer than the historical past)
