I really think they could have done the same thing with a v-6, but without making it a coupe would have been heavier.

I would have liked wider wheels w/some more rubber on the ground!!!

And the grind fixed, dont tell me that honda has no experience with high RPM gearboxes! I know better <-- that's directed to my dealer, who says grind at high RPM is "normal" WTF???

 

good point, S2KRAY, 32k is at the upper limits of my price range. Any higher and I would be priced out of the market. Just a poor working Joe. For the performance, style, etc. the price is really a bargain.

What would I like <gazes into distance>... hmm...

Lessee: Cushy suspension, slushbox, hardtop w/vinyl roof, 4 big soft seats, lots more gizmos & gadgets to play with... Oh! and a "gold package". Ah, F*ck it! I'll just go straight to a Cadillac dealer...no waiting!

 

1) Speakers behind the seats, my leg has a habit of blocking off the front left speaker
2) Glass rear Window
3) Tougher front air dam, less susceptible to curb scratches
4) Slightly taller windshield so i don't have to duck to see turn signals.
5) Better fitting boot

 

Negative 400 lbs.

 

Exactly! That would make the handling even more outstanding and almost have the effect of 300 HP.

 

Glass rear window. This sounds like a good project for Mingster or Rick Hesel. I'm sure they could sell one of these to every member of the board.

 

Make it run on Methanol! We could extract over 350-450 hp out of a Methanol burning 2.0 engine. Biltzen made one that did over 600!!!!
