For me, the 3rd gen looked a lot like an evolution of the 2nd gen. Still had the four lights on each end and the same general shape.

I’ve only ever seen pre-01s have the issue. Mechanical TB is a fair point, but isn’t there an issue with the brake booster in the pre-01s that was fixed with the facelift?
The LS is more comfortable but less fun to drive. Not that this GS isn’t comfortable. It’s certainly softer suspension-wise than my TL.
Yep. One of the reasons I’m glad I ended up with a facelift model. Wasn’t necessarily by choice, just happened to be that the one that fell into my lap was a later one.
I bought my 2004 back in December. It’s a project with almost 250k on the odometer, but I’ve been slowly fixing it up. I figured I should get one while they’re still somewhat affordable, unlike almost every other FR Toyota that’s even remotely fun to drive. Yeah, I put Aristo badges on it.
Hi. I’ve got one. Almost 250k and the lights are perfect.
Hill looks like he would own a Corvette and nothing else.
I don’t remember much about Mansell in his racing days, as I was 7 during the year he raced in the US, and didn’t get into F1 until 2005, but from all I’ve read about him your view of him is pretty accurate. I obviously feel the same about Alonso, given my avatar.
A couple weeks ago Motorsport ran an article saying Senna had a contract offer from Williams for 1992 but was persuaded by Honda to stay at McLaren. Imagine if he’d switched then. That’d have been at least 7 titles for him right then and there.
He’s not from Virginia. He moved here after he finished law school.
I’m not a fan of the corners of the front bumper or the lower part of the doors. I wouldn’t call those mild.
Looks aren’t the only thing I care about. I’m just getting tired of all the overstyling on cars now. First the Civic, then the Camry (and the Accord, to a lesser degree), now these.
Absolutely scalding take: I think these are ugly and I’m glad they’re not coming over here.
Yeah, Gasly’s P4 at Bahrain totally didn’t happen.
Oh, he’s loads of fun.
Yeah, the SH is quite a bit heavier than the base, mostly due to the ATTS. You’re pretty dead on with the TSX (which is 3385; the 1st gen is 3315 but all sources say the 2nd gen has a better torque curve so performance times are pretty much the same). 2601 could be the Type R version of the DC5. There’s also a massive…
Ah, fun. And yes, it is. Plus there are lots of fun back roads nearby that never have any traffic.
400 doesn’t sound right. A base 5-speed Prelude (no ATTS) weighs 2,960 pounds. Does the RSX really only weigh 2,550? Everywhere I’ve read says the weight is around 2,700, which still is, what, 8% difference?
