I would rock a Crown Athlete of a Mark X if they sold them here.

I know, hence why I mentioned the AWD ban.

Correct.

If it’s appended to a shit car, all the enthusiasm in the world won’t work.

A valid point.

The RL should have kept the Legend name.

It’s amazing that it survived.

Thanks for reminding me about racing, I knew I was forgetting something.

They didn’t give up so much as people stopped buying it (something to do with the target market growing up or something like that). The RSX was a better car than every Integra that came before, save the Type R.

1st gear: Okay.
2nd gear: *insert joke about unreliable German and British cars here*
3rd gear: Meh.
4th gear: Almost seems like they’re pretending nothing is wwrong.
5th gear: It would help if they had their own platform instead of hand-me-ups from Honda.
Neutral: The old NSX was a hell of a sports car, and it made…

Just because a tuner does it doesn’t necessarily mean a manufacturer can. They have to contend with things like costs from emissions certification, tooling changes (if any), overall development costs...it adds up, and considering the Toyobaru is a relatively low volume product, the costs might outstrip potential…

That’s a tough call.

Differing sources said a turbo engine wouldn’t fit (something about the plumbing); ithe seems to go back aND forth. Also, having driven one (with an automatic to boot), more power is more want than need.

3800 isn’t a performance engine (turbo variant excepted).

Three decades? Try 7-8.

The facelift is better looking. There, I said it.

Kinda surprised we’re seeing the 10AT so soon. Must have been necessary to avoid or minimize the gas guzzler tax. I’m looking forward to the first drives of the automatic car; it’ll be interesting to see what the press thinks.

Call Hank Hill.
