I’m confused. The article implies several years of restoration have gone into this, yet it looks like it was last registered in 2016?

Is it because the look of the 84 Honda is still very similar to cars being produced today

Ehh, given how everyone dismisses the Ford GT out of hand for having a V6, maybe they made the right call here.

No stick, no sale. I say, “Good Day Sir!”

A roadster without a manual option seems silly - the entire point of a roadster versus a GT is to have a better driving experience and that usually involves more engagement such as shifting on one’s own.

This.

Do you mean qualitatively better? In that case the answer is no, manuals do not improve performance.

No question; yes to all three. My friends with gen1 manual R8s love them. Lovely gated shifter the R8 lost when Lambo stopped trying to sell manuals.

It’s also terrible advice for hills, which I imagine is where most people are doing their engine braking. Great way to burn up your brakes at minimal benefit to your transmission. It almost sounds like he’s saying to cause absolutely no wear, do this. But just like brakes, clutches are wear items. You shouldn’t have…

Why park in gear when I have a functioning Parking Brake?I only do that as an extra precaution when parked on steep terrain. But 99% of the time...why?

That’s just putting safe driving over pure component wear. Which is not a bad tradeoff at all. Your dad was right, from the perspective of good driving.

As the customer, the pressure exerted on you by your bosses is not my problem. If you don’t want to special order a car for me, that’s fine. I’ll take my business to a dealer who is willing to take my money.

Unfortunately S2000s don’t just fall into laps any more.

I’ll be that guy.  Maybe should have bought the NA.

This may be bigger than we thought. It turns out that there were many early, unsuccessful attempts at this BMW theft scheme worldwide that only succeeded in disabling the turn signals.

Even though I was speaking from a visual point of view, I’m glad it works out for your disability. You should definitely look into an MK6 GTI in 3-door configuration. Lots of headroom in these GTIs and ample space for everything, not to mention, balls-to-wall driving is fun everywhere in a GTI. 

BUT IT WAS JUST A PRANK BRO

Here is the real question:

Reliability schmeliability... the MKIV is the best looking Golf after the original. Fight me!

The trend will only stop once all the kids being shuffled to soccer practice in them grow up and say “ew, my mom had one of those”. It happened to wagons, it happened to minivans and it will happen to crossovers. I hope.
