Some of those cars I could agree with. Some supercar's still have automatic transmissions with paddle shifters. You could argue paddle shifters are just as gay as automatics, which IMO are. 4-wheel steering is a great invention and I believe Honda was one of the first, if not first, car manufacturers to offer a car with 4-wheel steering. It's used a great deal in construction vehicles and even public transportation vehicles as well. They just didn't execute it very well. The CL 2.2, Acura SLX, and Honda Passport I agree withl. And I think the CR-Z is a dope ass car. Even if the Prius gets better ratings as a hybrid, it's still a dope car. First hybrid with a 6-speed? Why not? Plus hill assist is dope. My friend has it in his 2011 WRX and it's a really cool feature.
And one thing I'm glad Honda did away with is all the sub-models. Like the 5th gen was offered in CX, DX, LX, HX, EX, VX, I think even GX? Really? Is that necessary?
I have to disagree with the 2002 Si. They're complaining that it didn't have Honda's "flagship" engine? I'd take a K20A3 over a B16 any day. It makes peak power at a lower RPM, and has more torque. You can also swap the head and make 200hp, and even more torque. The only B16 that comes close is the B16B, which still only makes 184hp, and still has crap for torque.
I think it's more the fact that people were disappointed it didn't come with a 200hp platform like the 2006+. Especially considering the fact that the RSX base model came with the same motor and the RSX-S had the 200HP K20A2. Huge disappointment from a lot of people.
Plus the K is a huge step above the B. It's like comparing apples to oranges.
