I personally prefer Acuras as far as for racing...
The Japanese have racing down to an art.
Particularily in terms of the street.
Even in the case of the scumbag Nick Hogan. He was beating a Dodge Viper with a Supra.
Great cars.
Acura and Honda are one. In fact Acuras don't exist here, only Honda, Acura is a marketing name for Honda in the US.
So all the Acura cars you know are Hondas over here.
I can never remeber the Acura names, but here they're just Hinda Integras or Del Sols etc.

But if you could afford to run any Honda car the Prelude would give the biggest bang per buck.
But the Civic and Accord are fine cars and very comfortable.
The prelude I looked at HAD to be fairly new (at least a 2000 model or up) with it's shiny paint job, but the paper they had taped to the window said "Asking $5,900". A damn good deal if you ask me, because I once went to the Honda dealership and looked at 2 Honda Civics, (one was a 2004 model, the other was a 2003). They were both 2 door. He said the 2004 was $16,500, and the 2003 was like $14,900. FUCK THAT SHIT!!
Now, I know the Honda Civic is a great car, very reliable and also very good on gas (which is probably why they're asking so much), but Jesus flippin' Christ! It's still a rather small car, and sixteen thousand dollars is just too much!! They can keep those damn cars at the dealership for all I care!
Now this has been over a year ago, so I'm sure the price would have fallen
slightly by now. Gas prices are high, but they ain't THAT damn high!
But when I saw that prelude for sale for only $5,900, I was shocked. I know Hondas are good cars, but I had to ask if there was anything wrong with it for being so cheap when compared to what that damned dealership was asking.
