It sounds like your dad is only letting you drive HIS car to me.

You should be happy to drive such a classy car. Base model lexus is200's cost about $55k new, and are not half the car of the euro. Very shitty power, crappy interior and not half the features. It took for ever to get to 100kms/h. I have a euro manual and I wouldn't swap it for the world (well maybe for a NSX).

I wanted to get a Subaru Liberty GT, (very classy WRX) but the Girlfriend hates them. After that, I had my heart set on an Integra type R but, I am not paying over $50k for a piece of shit they are trying to pass off as a type R. This left me with the Accord Euro. I just wish they had released / will release the Euro R model. I will have to trade for it straight away :D

JUST DON'T APPRECIATE YOU CALLIN THE INTEGRA A PIECE OF SHIT! IT'S AMAZIN YOU'VE USED THE WORD CLASSY AND YET HAVE NONE

oh hang on jinrai.

i understand where hes coming from. calling it a piece of shit still aint right.

hes referring to the "type-s re-badged as a type r and sold iin australia as a type r". if driven properly and maybe a mod or two (basic vtec mods like air filter, air induction etc) could keep/smash a rexy similar to the old proper type r...

mate, just becareful about using "piece of shit" and type r in the same sentence...

I love the car and i choose it, and love it with all my heart...my dad doesnt like it yet he still drives it but any way. I few more kws wouldnt have hurt honda

Yo, i think you get the point from everyone here - GOOD. I think you're changing your point of view of the car the longer u sit in it and drive it - GOOD.

You need to appreciate, what is given to you... especially at the age of 17 and being on your Ls. Many people don't get a car at 17, let alone a $50K car what ever the size or performance. Some have to wait till they are 18 or even 21 to get a car or buy one themselves. At the age of 17 and on L's you should go and do an Advanced Driver training course, learn how to handle 'A CAR' in Emergency situation and then dream about having a sub 8second 0-100 car. We have enough DEATHS on our roads in every state, from YOUNG drivers on their Ps who don't know how to handle themselves in extreme emergency situations. We don't want any more dead kids on the roads.

So enjoy what you have, and like it - you are 1 of the lucky and fortunate ones to get a $50K car as your FIRST car! Do some driving Courses!!!

I suppose that was harsh. I retract that statement. I will replace it with the Australian Integra Type R is an over priced soft car.

I owned a 2000 type R and that thing was a lot better car than the dc5. Just how much would it cost to bring it up to true Type R standards? Honda Australia are fobbing off a lower spec car on the merits of the Type R badge. Hence it will be dropped very soon........

Diff specs yes, but bottom line is that it still has potential...after all everyone mods their car for better performance results...regardless whether or not its a jap spec or aus spec...end results is at the end of the day...its "YOURS" with your choice of after market performance parts

.....and to me it still merits the red badge!

I've driven cars like BMW 528i and I don't think the Euro falls any short of that if not better. It's certainly more quiet inside and feels as powerful, if not more powerful.

BTW, looks like my guess was right. If he owns it and lets you drive it, I don't call that your car. If you use that definition, I think I've owned about 4 cars by now.

You opened up savings a/c to buy a car in the future? Well, good luck. You'll need it especially if you're planning to buy a Legend in the future. Opening a savings a/c alone won't save money remember? You've got to earn it and it's not easy earning that much money at such a young age. I guess you're too comfortable living off your parents that you don't realise the real world outside.

Its the way you answer your question, like a little child........want performance go get daddy to buy you a wrx if you can't afford one, want more kw's write to honda and ask them to build a euro with more kw's.
I just sold my modified WRX and well looking to settle down and drive something more relaxing with style and decent power and equipment, i'm everyone here that brought a honda euro would be based on looks, feature and pricing, same as people that buy WRX's bang for you bucks.

If your car had more kw's I don't think you would be living very long enjoy what you dad has brought you........and go learn how to drive a manual if you want to be a boy racer I might give you some credit for that.

grow up and stop acting like a spoilt little brat
