"...but it's SO four years ago." What the hell was that?
Can anyone please explain to me why this guy is being given any level of credibility?

Seems to me that most of his complaints refer to the car being just what it is. Cramped passenger compartment? Give me a break! I'm 6'2" and while I don't have an excess of space when I'm in the car, I don't consider it to be uncomfortable or cramped in the least!

And where does he get VTEC being "motorcycle" derived? Honda has been putting VTEC (in one form or anther) in it's automobiles for what, 10 to 15 years now? They only produce one (1) VTEC equipped motorcycle that I know of and that's only been on the market for the past four or so years?



Drive Safe,
Steve R.

Perhaps bobbing Bob prefers an engine note whose character, texture or tonality (tonality?) is reminiscent of a deep moaning sound.

That's also what it sounded like to me. He mentioned bad ass handling and how our engines have a split personality. These all sound like good things to me. And sure, he mentioned a couple of negative things about the car, but what car does not have it's cons?

I remember this article form the last thread. IMO this guy has very little credibility because of this article:
http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/con...8113602252329/

This is from another author, but he's the editor of this BS website. Just take a look at the article.
