great idea if the engine was right behind the driver, like it is in the r8...
so you can look in your rearview mirror and see that baby glowing!!

maybe the real mod is moving the engine to the trunk- that would be a strange handling car since ours is balanced with the engine in the front...
could do wheelies!!

i think any rear/mid engine car would be OKAY to have a clear hood. why? because its done before and i haven't seen any front engined car with a clear hood that looks good. and i think lights/neons/led's don't really belong anywhere. just looks ricey. on a honda anyways.

and don't compare a ferrari/lambo/highend audi/ porsche with a honda s2000 please. i love my car but its not either one of those car that costs 10x more, which is why i don't think we're supposed to compare ourselves with them.

that was one of the best lines of logic today: and don't compare a ferrari/lambo/highend audi/ porsche with a honda s2000 please. i love my car but its not either one of those car that costs 10x more, which is why i don't think we're supposed to compare ourselves with them.

what does that mean? please explain further.
