Has any automaker fallen from grace further than Honda?
>S2000 >NSX >Prelude >Integra >RSX Type S >CSX Type S >Del Sol >CRX >Si/S/Type R variants galore >simple, attractive designs >screaming NA engines >fun, lightweight, no-bullshit cars
Now
>nothing sporty beside Civic Si >CRZ is an utter failure >ugly chrome spaceship styling >everything is heavy and bloated >engines lost their personality (but at least they have torque?)
pretty much the same with nissan and mazda only companies making good cars now are american and italian
Jaxon Moore
Also subaru
Tyler Watson
Still driving my S2000. Hopefully it will last long enough for a replacement to be on the market.
Jaxson Scott
I want to like Mazda for the lightweight engineering in the new Miata, and for still having "steering feel" in their vocabulary, but
>no cars with more than 190hp
Are you fucking kidding me?
Nathaniel Edwards
Same shit happened to Toyota
Connor King
>italians
yeah nah
Samuel Cruz
>mid 90's prelude with a old motor and straight body >k24a2 longblock, harness and ecu from a TSX >hasport bbk1 mounts, axles, and harness >do the swap yourself over a few weekends >hondata k pro and a tune
This is how you Honda in 2016

reuters.com/article/us-autos-honda-idUSKCN0VW26I >Over the years, our product development process became overly complex and slow, involving a huge number of engineers and sales and marketing people," said one of the two Honda executives. As a result, "we began producing watered down, uninspiring, what you might call designed-by-committee, cars." Hopefully this change happens soon though.

>ugly chrome spaceship styling >everything is heavy and bloated Literally every brand.
Wyatt Murphy
This is almost exactly what I'd do for my first project car. Nobody likes the BB4 but its easily my favorite honda
Mason Campbell
this same thing is happening with everything....
Hunter Nelson
Toyota did, except they just keep sinking several of those 30b net annual profits into the heaviest handed marketing in the entire auto industry so the gullible plebes are still clinging
Aiden Evans
>designed-by-committee, cars." Also known as Toyota's Disease
Wyatt Cox
why did honda stop producing s2k's? i'd honestly purchase a new AP3
Christian Mitchell
It's renaissance has yet to come.
Blake Morris
>prelude fackin why its their worst car
Andrew Richardson
Sedan has an awkward shape. Coupe is plain ugly. But this hatch makes my dick hard.
Jaxson Turner
Shame it'll be 230hp, 3200lbs, and 28k dollars.
Charles Gutierrez
I dont mind the sedans , but any civic coupe after the ej have horrendous designs, like look at this shit, who the fuck said "i like this design"
Henry Gray
I like that design.
Michael Watson
Are S2000s even really Hondas? I mean they're RWD.
Jason Edwards
Yeah honestly I like that design too. Also like the 2012 design.
Aiden Mitchell
Wait for the spirior ;)
Jacob Allen
Fight me. The only thing keeping it from being perfect is it should've been a lift-back like the Integra.
Jace Baker
Mazda
Evan Rodriguez
You seem to be underestimating the Honda Accord V6.
Sure, it's heavier than the Civic, but it's still quicker and faster.
278 hp>205 hp
Tyler Turner
The British make the best cars for middle class people who want something fun to drive.
Elijah Evans
>american
Hunter Brown
Mazdas line is gold. Nissan has always mostly been shitty since their name change.
Ayden Stewart
>del sol
Hoholholhohohol
Brandon Smith
Please tell me why a Del Sol is a bad car.
Leo Rodriguez
Honda's greatest fault was only building one generation of some of its greatest cars.
>S2k >NSX >CRX (del slow doesn't count) >Beat
What were they thinking?
Kayden Cooper
>be Honda >see wild success of Miata in America >see other companies (BMW, Merc, Toyota) build competitors >wait 10 years to join in
The things I would do for a 1994 Honda S1600 with a B16A2.
Tyler Morales
>Honda has a third RWD car
Neat
Ayden Allen
>s2k,nsx, crx, beat >one generation >rwd is all that matters
Aaron Thompson
What good cars does Subaru have now other than the BRZ? The WRX is halfway between an econobox and a sportscar, and the STi is so overpriced for what you're getting these days.
