Ken, put that wing from the last page onto one of your Fits. I'll borrow my daugther's Fit and we'll race (legally, of course!) and measure the tremendous downforce you'll be scoring!

I baby my Z.. .I drove the piss out of my RSX... so this kind of makes sense to me.


edit - Honda transmissions are also super smooth... I cringe everytime I go into 2nd gear, ever since I had my 350z...
I used to love Hondas. I still love mostly all 92-00 civics/tegs and s2ks. Transmissions are the best in the industry (manuals) autos are garbage. Now I'm a nissan lover. My Z is absolute quality, nothing wrong whatsoever.

To each his own, drive the car that's right for you. As long as your not trading for a frecken SUV or Truck, then I would be so dissapointed.

I don't know, the Honda might win that fight. The Z won't have enough torque to get off the line in 3rd.
