Whats so good about a crappy Honda Civic, or an Accord? Don't give me that BS lie, "Its good!" Honda is overpriced for what its made of. Its completly crap. The only car that was O.K was the S2000. Everything else is gay. I hate Honda Lovers.

My family has always owned Hondas and Acuras, but we bought a Seville STS in 2000. That car was crap! Domestic manufacturers still don't get it. Hell, my dad's 2004 TL could probably smoke all your cars despite being FWD. Thanks to a limited slip differention, turbocharger, cold air intake, and custom exhaust, his TL makes about 470HP. My mom's RL makes 300HP STOCK. That's only 3-less horsepower than GM's touted "Small Block" V8 found in GM's new FWD cars with 4-speed autos.

And hey auroradude,
My TSX 6-speed would accelerate on par with your Aurora, even when mine was stock.

A V6, oh please. My Aurora would be blown away yse but not my dads car. 4.2L 400HP Jaguar S-Type R supercharged. Its RWD. does a 4 second 0-60 and has a top speed of 155. (we've taken it to 140). Also a lot better "luxury" car than that TL or RL, lmfao. Its so nice inside. You parents probably couldnt afford a sub 60k car anyway if they are driving Acura's (just call it a Honda) with chinsy interiors

Oh and dont forget, RCTennis newbie that Horsepower isnt everything.......a lot more to do with Torque. The RL only has 260 torque. 300HP doesnt do justice in this case..

WOW i didnt think anyone would be that freaking stupid to pay 43,000 for that car either. What a f'ing waste. For 43,000 i would get a 2003 Ford Mustang Cobra Convertible with 400HP and 420 lb-ft TQ stock. Just adding a Borla cat-back exhaust would bring that MF'er up to 410HP.

Reliable yes, but no protection. Also the features on those cars are really weak in the 1997 model year compared to my car. The interiors in those hondas are such junk in 97, its pathetic. This is what my interior looks like:

nice, but nothing special.

honda's don't have special interiors either...

you can get a ferrari and a honda, and the ferrari's going to break down before the honda.

doens't mean the honda's better, but it does mean if you plan on driving 15.3 miles to work everyday as the only think you really use your car for, a honda's better for you.

Yeah Sadolekic, but if you look at the things my interior has, not just the way it looks.

Electrochromic Rearview Mirror with Compass
Full automatic climate control with cabin air filtering and outside temp
Radio steering wheel controls
Homelink Garage Door Opener where the sunroof opener is
Driver information center (displays LOW COOLANT, HIGH ENG TEMP, things like that)

and tons more, nice stuff like that. excellent for its time

who in the world ever needs a compass, unless you ilve in the woods or something..

Radio steering, honda's have that also

Honelink garage door, you can have that installed if you want for cheap

Driver info center?..honda's have all that stuff near the speedometer

automatic climate control isnt really important..

it is quite nice. i'd like to have a compass in my car, because i know the location of things in my town by compass points

the climate control is nice, becuase you can set your temp. like with a house thermostat, instead of just 1, 2, 3, 4.

also them civics didnt have full leather seats standard either like mine did. also mine has both front and passenger full 8-way power seats, heated seats and power lumbar standard. OWNED.

your comparing a 15k car to a 36k car like mine was on the invoice. had bose stereo, 12 disc cd changer. sweet shit.

id rather have a tank and get shitty 15mpg then have a cardboard box that gets 45mpg.

I don't hate Hondas but I don't love them either considering I don't really know anything about cars in that much detail........

Hondas are quite alrite, they're not too expensive and the quality is quite good too.

yea i'm with you on that, yea 21 k for a lil pow pow and some gadgets in an aurora..

you know what i can do w/ 21k to a civic

drop in a rebuilt 210hp type-r motor for 3k
drop in a turbo kit system for 3k bring it up 250 hp
port polish for 800, 260
upgrade suspension to skunk2 coilovers for 300
and many more..

hell i could add in all those features you love about your car for under 1000 i bet..

Civics may not haev leather seats, but integra GSR's and accords do. You keep saying civics are death traps, where are you getting this from. Are yuo just making this stuff up to prove a point or something; just because your car weighs a million tons and civics weigh little.

I know somebody who was killed in a Civic si. dont give me that garbage.

Accord's leather is "fake" leather. Haha. Or i assume you probably dont know cause you have never sat in "real" leatehr before. sigh.

but Anyway thats nice you would do 21k to a civic...real nice. More power to get yourself wrapped around a pole with.'

And no i am not making the shit up, its all true. Here is a full list of specs, from my Aurora Owners brochure that was in the glove compartment when i got it.
