Unhappy 5 Innovative Honda Cars from the Last 15 Years

I'm sure many of you have noticed the frequent blog type articles that have been appearing on the home page of the site lately.

The most recent is called:

5 Innovative Honda Cars from the Last 15 Years


5 Innovative Honda Cars from the Last 15 Years - S2ki

In it of course is the S2000. Here's what they say about it:

The highly upgradeable S2000 offers tremendous handling, as well as an attractive exterior, but what is innovative about it was the 9000 rpm redline, and the 120hp per liter from the F20C motor. Over its 10 years of production, the S2000 kept improving little by little as a sports car, receiving suspension updates, a bigger motor, and brake modifications, but the basic package was nearly perfect from the get-go.



Seriously? Highly upgradeable? Brake modifications?

In addition, for the 2015 Civic Type R the state it lapped the Nurburgring in 8 seconds. Seriously guys?

Here's what I wrote in the comment section:

No offense guys, but I'd suggest a Honda enthusiast write these articles, and then get a proofreader as well.

I don't think that the 2015 Civic Type R lapped the Nurbugring in 8 seconds.

I also would NOT call the S2000 highly upgradeable. The only way to get an appreciable amount of extra horsepower is by forced induction.
And anything to make it handle better is expensive as well.

The only change made to the S2000's brakes was a very minor change on pad material in 2004.

And why the heck are you showing a picture of a 2018 Civic Type R prototype in the area you are discussing the 2015 Civic Type R.

What is up with these blog type articles going up lately? This one is really unprofessional. Embarrassing.

Many of the articles lately on the home page are rather poorly written and edited even more poorly.
