why so much hate on honda's
why do people hate so much on honda's do they feel treaten that a four banger can actually be a competion.
when everyone knows that we are in different weight classes..
when a four banger a 1.5 liter made 1400 hp bak in 1983 i believe engine made by bmv
so why do american muscles call them selfs kings and bad ...
just wondering

Cause a rear wheel drive car with 1400 hp would smoke a front wheel drive car with 1400 hp any day of the week.
They call themselves kings because it is so incredibly hard for an import with fwd & a 4 banger to beat a V8 rwd American made car.
Plus a v8 is way cheaper to mod and bolt ons add twice the horsepower (more in some cases) than the same bolt ons for 4 bangers.
They also probably hate on Honda's because we get twice the gas mileage they do

And are far more reliable
And are far more reliable
I have also put more money into my 2000 LX than I had to put in my 91 Mustang too simply due to the cost of the timing belt change.

ford sucks period. my supra with an I6 beat a slowBUTT 5.0.......no more is needed to be said. And their reliability will not surpass hondas unless you dont do maintence to your honda which is minimal. Oh and its not hard to beat a heavy v8...my friends here have a tegra that beat an SS...speaking of, i need to find that video haahahaha

Not necessarily. My 91 Mustang has had far fewer problems than my 95 V6 Accord. AndtheMustanghas about 60,000 more miles on it than the Accord does.

The things people do to hondas...make them a laughing stock. I saw a puke green handa with a hood scoop screwed on, yellow mirrors, a body kit that was falling off, gold rims, a HUGE shopping cart spoiler, and a fart can exhaust[sm=laughat.gif]. that why people hate on hondas. theGREAT gas milage, and reliability dont help either[sm=yeahsmile.gif]
