Well, when the original NSX came out, Honda was a lot less beige than they are now. They produced some boring cars that were at least of higher quality than their competition and the Accord of that era handled very well and had a superb manual transmission.

Damn. Sold my GS500 back in 1994 for about a $1000. I have regretted that ever since. This post just reopened some old wounds. I’ll be in the back if anyone needs me.

You just described the entirety of the business model for Porsche so I say it can work for them.

The Buick looks sorta frowny or mad, but the Camaro just looks squinty to me.

I am quite sure there is a middle ground between NYC and in the middle of nowhere.

If you really want to do something about all the deaths, then better driver education is the answer.

• Lecture about feminism that does really make sense when its coming from a person who treats people like crap.

The number one thing I would like to see dealers do better online:

I would add to that: Truck drivers. Those jobs can go to hell too.

While a lot of what you’re saying just sounds like sales and marketing regurgitation, I’m glad to hear that they can hold their own competing. We need good competition in the space. I’m sure a lot of that is regional. I’m in the Atlanta area and for whatever reason they don’t do as well here. Could very well be the…

I couldn’t really find an image of one of these unmolested for fairly obvious reasons, but here is a 1995 Honda Civic.

Then how do you explain Acura?

Agree to a certain degree. There is a wheel size that will look better on a car that fits the proportions of the car.

I would add that for the love of god would every single car seat manufactured allow for the seat to be tilted independently for the front of the seat and rear to account for the fact that people have different leg lengths.

What you are describing is a much more performance oriented driving technique but the discussion was more about how average (below average?) drivers were confusing the brake and gas pedals. So my second paragraph was attempting to describe someone trying to hold both feet in the air while trying to decide which pedal…

I would actually love this vehicle if they would offer it with an engine that didn’t make it feel neutered.

This is the reasoning I learned regarding why you should never drive with both feet, and I think it is sound:
