sort of... sorry but i'm not a hatchback fan at all... Dont get me wrong... they're good for daily driving and find parking (actually I love them for these reasons), but for a look of a performance car? :(Quote:

You might get flamed. Eventhough we love Hondas, we are not that blind to compare it to a Ferrari.Quote:

Hondas are made to be daily driven and be practical (hence you get hatch, wagon, sedan, coupe and SUV shapes).
hahahah I know mr aaronng... but like you said... daily driven and practical, not for performance :p so why make/release "a-better-performance-version-than-the-standard-version" on hatchback instead of the sedan? why they have R32 in hatchback, not sedan?Quote:

hahahah ic ic... oh well... i think it just becoz I dont like hatches :p thats why I "foolishly" choose the Civic Sports to GTI 2 years ago :pQuote:

LOL. Sorry mate, I wouldn't buy a cooking model if it looked like an NSX. You haven't put little Red Hs on your car have you?
Why not? If there was a cooking model NSX with say 2.4L 140kW, it would still look good, have enough power to move around and handles good. The only thing is that being a cooking model, it would have to be affordable. That is something that the NSX definitely isn't.Quote:
