    You don't like it :( It's had £12,000's ($21,000) worth of modifications.

    Can you not get over yourself? :confused:

    Seriously, since I drive a Mazda it doesn't take much to see yet again you're focusing your posts to me. Mazda crap hey, fully loaded Mazda 6 GT compared to the car you posted that's the biggest laugh I've had all week.

    Dan get a life!

    I used to like this more when I was younger, (I'm not old BTW 25 ;)) but now I'm in to a much lower profile look and a powerful engine. :cool:

    Come to Europe and 1.6 is sort of a "big" engine... sad :( You get taxed out your ass and robbed on Insurance the bigger the engine.

    Damn! My car now has a 3.0 and that's not even that big of an engine. Engines have gotten smaller here, not compared to the 7-8+ litres of the 70's but still pretty big :D

    Thanks :) I think so too! I saw it in person today and drove it and man the car runs VERY WELL and doesnt red line until 8500 RPM :p

    Just to get the DOHC VTEC to kick in you need to bring it up past 5500 RPM :)

    The car is in fantastic shape! looks amazing inside and out. Has one little ding the size of my thumb nail behind the driver side door that I should be able to get fixed for about 100$ the windshield needs to be replaced though.

    Tomorrow the girl that is seeling it is going to look at replacing the windshield for me before I agree to buy it and we will be bringing it to a dealership to have them do a complete inspection :)

    If all goes well I'll have this car by mid week!!!

    my $.02: rice unless it really delivers. and that thing..phewww, good luck with insuring it fully.

    Honda=over rated and an average Joe car brand that everybody drives today; get something different that stands out.

    Ford Fusion is a great looking car, AWD also which is fantastic, but before you go into the reputation of FORD which I'm sure you might bring up, all cars break sometime; if you take car of 'er, she takes care of you.

    I'm an Audi owner and I know, trust me.

    if you drive it reving past 5500 RPM, that car won't last a month on your hands, considering that's a Vtec.

    Other than that, good luck with your decision, hope you enjoy it when you get it and have a lot of fun with it, and drive safe.

    Cheers.

    Wow...this thread makes me realize how much more economical Euros are. I have a 4.2 litre Ford Explorer that gets in maybe in the 20's MPG if I'm very good.

    Never heard of getting insured by engine size. And I know Petrol is at least twice as much there.

    I do build 150 MPG motorized bikes though.

    Its a great car. Powerful. no. Reliable and fun yes. It will go another 100,00 K easy with oil changes. I have an Acura Integra with 138K and it runs like its brand new. Great gas mileage. Great Cars!
