Can we all agree that Deflategate is a much better term than Ballghazi? I can't believe how many media outlets like to make puns with Benghazi forgetting the fact that Americans were killed.

There is a very specific line between the Si and Type R, no matter the vehicle you're talking about. Long story short (and others I'm sure can find the references) but Si's are about performance without compromising comfort. Type R's are about performance without compromise.

I'm no longer with Honda, so my information is dated, but a NA (North America) Spec Type R was originally going to be built in Indiana alongside a 5 door variant of the Civic. Then the 5 door got moved to Canada, and along with it, the Type R.

What would really make these the business is if they were drive on. You'd have to have a special jack that could lift from 2-3 inches from the ground, but if these were drive on for lowered cars, it would be brilliant. Granted the price would have to go up another $300ish for the custom jack...

I completely agree. You have a car that is considered 'too fast' by all racing communities. So you just get to drive it around, by yourself, on an empty track. What bar or standard do you measure yourself against? If you compare yourself to the lap records at the tracks, aren't they pretty much set by inferior…

What I'd really like to know is if I can buy this car for about $20k in 10 years? That would be super!

I was seriously hoping that the input would have actually been a port-a-let. That would have been extremely impressive.

Is there any confirmation that the film will be shown in its entirety and not edited in any way per the GOP's demands?

I thought I saw it mentioned somewhere that Sony would be able to collect insurance on the film, and claim it as a total loss. Please let that be true, and please report on it, so that we can see just how F'ed up this whole situation really is.

I believe there was an article on Jalop a while back about these... They're PAX tires (also used on the Honda Odyssey for a couple of years) PAX tires require special equipment to mount and dismount the tires, and for the Veyron tires, it was even more specialized equipment. I remember reading once that there were…

So this post is all well and good, but what are the chances of a follow-up post on how ridiculously difficult / expensive it would be to actually buy something at this auction and have it shipped to the states?

Wasn't there usually a website that would always cover the booth babes... err booth professionals from each event like this? I'm picturing her looking like Sara Walsh on ESPN

Since ILX production has shifted to Marysville, expect the ILX to inherit / borrow a lot more tech from the Accord / TLX. All of these changes were planned well before I ever caught wind of the production shift, but it's funny we never really saw the writing on the wall.

I've slept in a S2000 on two different occasions, and I echo your sentiment, do not recommend. I certainly can't imagine doing it for 14 nights straight. The one time I slept in a neighborhood, and I was awakened by two kids being startled to find a dude in the car (my window was cracked open). The one kid was a…

Honda S2000 riding on Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3's. Worked like a charm. Having a manual transmission definitely makes driving in snow and on ice easier as well, IMHO

I also ate horse in Japan, raw, and it was quite good. I think a lot of these animals have a stigma in America because we don't have to eat them, because we have so much land to raise beef, pork, and poultry. In smaller countries, they don't have the room to do that, so they pretty much eat anything. It's a luxury…

The thing about the gold apple watch is, EVERYONE will know that the gold one is $5k. If you know what an apple watch is, and practically everyone will, they'll also know that the gold one is $5k, and they'll know that because it's so outlandish.

I was going to say the same thing. If you're that paranoid by this, just turn your phone off. "Sorry officer, I turned my phone off, let me turn it back on. Oh, sorry, my fingerprint won't unlock the phone right now, see it tells you that on the screen right there; I have to enter my passcode. Sorry, I don't want…

I was at a Colts v. Eagles game in Philly a few years back, when Austin Collie took one of his many shots to his head. He postured immediately, and laid there motionless for what seemed like 10 minutes. There was a guy two seats down from me that started going on and on, yelling, about Collie being a pussy, that he…

So where's the actual stealing part? I just see a really indecisive shopper carrying a bunch of different headphones off to the sales counter?
