So, Cosmin (and others,) my post hit a raw nerve? I'm sure you've heard
the old saying "sticks and stones may break my bones but, words will
never hurt me." Obviously, Honda owners get all uptight and emotional
when someone casually points out how inferior Hondas are. Now, see, you
could talk trash all you want about Camaros- and, quite frankly, go
ahead, cause I've seen ALOT MORE Hondas in the junkyard and on the side
of the road than I have seen Camaros.

Flawed logic.
A - Hondas in junkyards have hunderds of thousand of miles on 'em
B - Hondas far outnumber Camaros
c - Get a life!

Got one....
Bet you didn't realize the number of Japanese kids going through great
lenghts to aquire American Muscle cars (and VW Beetles) Bet if you were to
bring a Camaro...ANY year.....You will double double it's value if you sold
it in Japan.

Flawed logic again.
Keep the comparisons relevant.
The discussion here is modern tin, not vintage iron...
Sheeeeeeeeeesh!

All right...you jest scored cool points calling it vintage iron, BUT I must
say that the logic is not flawed. If you got anyone you know stationed in
the military over in Japan, (my dad spent 4 years there, and have several
friend that were at Kadina) You will find my logic is right on...
NOW to caviat for a moment...there is probably one for one who would give
thier left nut to bring a J-spec Skyline back here to the US..........

Of course it's flawed logic if you know how to basically parse a sentence...

funny...I have a broke Honda in my driveway. 1992 Prelude to be exact. The
previous owner toasted the tranny. Rack and pinion is shot, needs a timing
belt, a CV axle, and some brakes......
Ahhhh, my favorite Honda....a BROKE one!!! Makes me money, money money!!!
Previous Honda repairs..1994 Accord...transmission
1998 Accord...rear hub, brakes,
Oh, and my very favorite one...a 2001 Honda Civic, MOTOR CHANGE!!! sucked
water in through one of those fancy cold air intakes and bent a rod. Kept
on driving it until it grenaded the block
Remember...In Japan, Hondas are like Chevys....Everybody has or wants one.
Jest like in Britian...BMW's are like Chevys
