First drive
Hey guys,
I'm considering an s at the moment and drove one earlier. First impressions were:
good steering feel
handles amazingly
clutch felt nice and light
vtec didn't seem overly strong
my current car is an Audi s3 so maybe that's why vtec didn't seem strong as I'm used to a turbo. (Used to drive an ep3). Hopefully I can try another out soon as they are cracking little cars.

The colour I love as I bought it new and the colour you don't like. It's taken a lot of heart searching but due to illness the car is going to have to go. I don't know whether to sell the hard top, Mugen manifold, Password carbon fibre cooling plate and snorkel, K&N filter, and Hondata Flashpro separate or with the car. Any advice welcome, do I sell it now or wait until next spring?

Don't forget, a VTEC kick isn't necessarily a good thing. It's usually because the power has flattened out just before it, rather than a big boost after it kicks in.

Sounds like a fair assessment from a first drive but also depends what you're expecting from VTEC really, it's not like a shot of unicorn fart nitrous but there should be a noticeable "step" in the rev range where it stops going "dddddrrrr" and then goes "raaaaaaaaaa" at which point your smile should increase proportionally to RPM. There are things ( mostly consumable bits) that can detract from delivered power over time, so its possible it has a defective MAP sensor or something along those lines.
