i wonder if those mpg figures are on normal mode or what. cause i drove an ex model and it got 55mpg on econ mode.
unless the power plant is completely different, i wouldn't know. i dont care enough to check on it. its balls slow in gt5 LOL
if i had 20k i would have bought it already. that car is really nice. compare it to what 20k used to get you in 04, and you're getting a deal.
the ep was priced at 16-22k and all it was, was a civic with a k20 platform and one-off seats that only came in the ep. and a red stitched steering wheel. i dont remember how much the regular civic was but i bet it was going for 13-15k at the time. now you can get navi, 30-50mpg, a stereo system that you probably never have to change, and if you were a crx lover, you would have the new crx and guess what, you would probably never have a reason to sell the car.
i always wanted an ef platform, now that i got one, its awesome still. i average 30-35 mpg and my co workers are getting 20-24 in there g35's and subarus. on a 40 mile one way trip to work.
i say, don't bash it until you try it. i was like "wtf..." then i drove it and now im like "omguh!" - i drove a 2001 insight ON ICE, poped the clutch and it still didn't have enough power to spin the wheels. ON SMOOTH ICE. i drove litterally 100 ft and took it back to the dealer. it gets great mpg but damn, that was dangerously slow.
My buddy has one of them and there pretty fun cars to drive for what they are
It's just not my cup of tea. I also find it funny that the tuner companies are still trying to use Honda platforms when Honda has basically said "we're done with performance until we can figure this green thing out." I agree it would definitely make waves if this thing took the 25 hours, I guess that already happened if this is an older thread.
But again, just not what I would wanna drive. If that makes me a broke "hater" because I went and got a BMW that I liked the styling of, so be it. Shrug.
Honda could have done a little better with the rear end but the front end looks pretty sweet!
For what you would spend on this you could just get a new TL. which is a slight upgrade. What a joke.
