I hate Mercedes ergonomics BTW. It's just random where those germans put things. :icon18:

back on topic, though, Honda...

I loathe their advertising.

I want to know why they and Toyota no longer make real performance vehicles. I'm sure it's their market strategy, and it probably works. But those badges used to inspire lust (s2k, nsx, supra, mr2). They now inspire :yawn:

No, no, no but Honda has the CR-Z now. It's a true SPORTS car :icon14: :icon14: :icon14:

It's much cheaper to build boring cars that people who don't give a **** about performance buy. They make more money that way.

True. There would be no GT Mustang without the v6. Although, now the v6 stang and camaro are fun cars to drive with decent power. Still...

Don't get me wrong, the LF-A is awesome from a nerdy engineering standpoint... But it's not accessible to the common man.

Mitsubishi Motors is just a terrible manufacturer currently, but imagine if they had no Evo or Lancer Ralliart (which is now turbo AWD). Their lineup would be worse than Hyundai's. Ugh.

It's not feasible to own one unless you are a billionaire. Or rather, you probably shouldn't. It's almost Veyron status.
