As for Honda mechanics, I hope I never need one but I'll wait until I do before I judge them.
I can also add that the worst Honda dealership was better than any of three Mazda dealerships I tried to work with.

SCCA is (despite its other flaws) unbiased as to cars. In other words, SCCA autocross results are one of the best independent, objective ways to quantify handling (just as Nurburgring is one of the best ways to objectively quantify performance on surfaces other than dirt).

Have you driven Chris' ITR on Page Mill or anything similar? I think Shea-bird is interested in mountain road twisties. Oh and how's the understeer in the ITR? Manageable?
