    I don't, I drive a Nissan.

    And where did I say I loved BMWs

    Typical OzHonda, as soon as anything gets compared to a honda that might just be better, you get a quick eflaming...

    Because an E90 coupe handles better than you might think.... BMW use what honda don't... caster... not to mention RWD, but that just adds to the BMWs performance.
    You can buy E92 coupes for the same price as a FD2R now...

    Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.

    if you're going to go comparing all performance cars in a similar price range to the fd2r we are going to be a while...

    in any case, idea by OP sounds pretty stupid (and rediculously expensive). afaik you do not need to be a jap citizen to be able to bring back a car as a personal effect after living there but still, u gonna go live in japan just to get a civic?

    I have an E46 M3. Great chassis and handling. It'll outperform any Honda. But I still love my Hondas!

    you can legally import a FD2R into OZ , as an off-road car only. (they are available)
    Or you can live in japan for 1 yr and prove you have owned the car for 1 year with receipts etc , then bring it back here to OZ

    Caster isn't that fancy, nothing like a shopping trolley for a car. I don't think caster causes large improvements in handling, simply straight line stability.

    yes, it is good for what it is - a luxury car. however you seem to have no idea that the e90 weighs a good 400kg more and lacks about 5kw in peak power than the fd2r, not to mention track focused suspension among other things.

    not saying that its not a good car because it certainly is for daily driving and cruising, but you're going no where comparing it to a track day special that is the fd2r. aaronng is totally right. horses for courses.

    but realize or not, BMW (and Merc) always 1 level above Honda.
    whatever the reason, we always want at the higher (and highest) class (of everything).
    FD2R or S350 (if same price, lets say talk bullshit), the choice is urs

    anyway, police ride horses for cruising
