Sooooooo....

Ok so first off I mean no disrespect to the honda community in general. If your a real car enthusiest then I can respect that. Ok so anyway .....

Now I have noticed a lot of people in hondas or any import small car like to drive like fucktards. Swerving in and out of trafic and trying to race everything with any amount of wheels. Of course ive seen a good amount of domestic cars .... specifically trucks of all things lulz do the same.

My questions is why? Why dear god makes import drivers do this?

Btw yes I own a mustang, a V6 at that .... im sure a lot of people here could stomp me in a race. Now "technically" I own a "sports" car, but I dont even speed if I can help it ... well on rare occasions I have. So why does someone in a daily driver economy car think they are so fast as to street race or speed. I can see if it were modded out the ass ..... but the ones i mostly see or read about on other forums are the stock ones.

I figure I can get some light shed on this from actual honda/import owners.

I'd say it probably has more to do with the age of the "fucktards" you're seeing on the road. Most of the kids I see driving, no matter what the car, think they're f'in Michael Schumacher or some shit. I'm 26, and neither me nor my friends try to act hard in our cars. I know my cars not quick and I don't try to pretend otherwise. Now I have noticed a lot of guys in 350Z's thinking they're badasses on the road recently and it does make me laugh. However, I see plenty of people in Mustangs, Camaros, etc. drive like they're hot shit too. You have to realize that imports are the "in" thing now, and therefore more kids are driving them.

PS - Calling a V6 Mustang a "sports" car is akin to calling an EVO a econobox. My dad drives a V6 Mustang, he's 50 years old...his attempt at looking sporty without the fuel consumption

hmm yes tuche. however even the V6 is still a sportier sports car than most avg imports. I believe my stock (well ok its not stock anymore, CAI and SCT3 tuner) would get higher 1/4 times than a stock .. I dunno ...... civic. Not sure where im going with this. But I still kinda consider a v6 mustang a sports car. I dont believe you have to have a V8 to be a sports car. Btw the V6 has great mod potential.

Also the 2010 mustang V6 has rumors about it that it might be Twin Turbo :drool: making around 425rwhp at stock tune.

Also dont get me wrong some imports do look pretty clean. And even fast to boot. however the price to get imports that werent made to go fast, fast .. isnt an economical good choice. Then again niether is modding a v6 XD

i think a lot of it is just the maturity thing, especially driving like asshats weaving in and out of traffic. Then theres people like me who know what their car is capable of and don't care if they lose against someone and either just like to see how other cars perform or how they fair against another car.

I have read about the potential for a turbo V6 in the Mustang with the whole CAFE mileage requirements coming into play, and I too am interested to see how that plays out.

'04 Mustang V-6: 0-60 in 7.58 seconds
1/4 mile in 15.95 sec at 87 mph
Est. Price $19,535

'04 RSX Type S: 0-60 in 6.94 seconds
1/4 mile in 15.46 sec at 91.34 mph
Est. Price $23,320

I would have paid the extra $4K to have the interior, suspension, and looks of the RSX (not to mention the performance potential of the K20) over the V-6 Mustang any day. And I happen to be a Mustang fan; I just don't understand buying a Sports car and not getting the one with the most potential...just my $.02

yeah but those stock numbers can be easily changed with a CAI, Tune, and a little weight reduction.

btw i will be one of the first people to buy that V6 if they do have TT. I will fking sell my first born and kidneys for it.

Nah, can't say I do.

But down here in Texas the fucktard drivers are in Camaros, GTOs, and Firebirds, few Hondas as well.

they are both economy cars, not worth the time as it is

v6 mustang = fail because why buy the bottom of the barrel and try to mod it to make it slower still than the upgrade model

tho i like the rsx, it still fails because of the fwd factor
