DC2 are renowned for being best handling FF car ever made, saxo/106's a very close 2nd

The VTEC haters were slow to bite lol. If you have not driven the civic or DC5 you wont be aware of the kick vtec gives. It's more noticable on the newer hondas compared to the DC2 and Accord type R. As for the light you either love it or hate it, but the 07 comes with a vtec light as standard.
As for liking the facelift more the only difference is the lower lip and indicators as the interior and lights have been changed to the facelift.
The clio 182... I like that car and someone in my road has one in silver that looks rather nice. I do prefer having a bigger car though. Although it looks small from the outside there is plenty of room inside (waits for family car comments).
It's no super car and there are plenty faster cars out there, but as an all round package they are very good and now you can get them for as low as 7.5k
I have driven a 93 crx vti del sol thingy, vtec certainly noticeable and it screamed like a bastad but hardly a 'kick'.
passenger in a new CTR, really unimpressed to be honest. would not say it felt to slow, and this 'kick' well again it never really happened.
saying that i am used to forced induction 300bhp+ cars now, so these piss ant N/A 4 pots are going to feel like a hairdryer. Try driving something that dumps 320lb/ft of torque on your Ass and pins you into your seat, thats a 'kick'.

Anyway I believe there is a meet in southend on Sunday if any of you corsa boys want to experience vtec then I'll let you. It's not world changing and I doubt we will hit warp factor 9 but it is still fun as any honda owner will tell you.
lame. this is a proper car...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHlyJqzpDe8&mode=related&search=

If not SHUT YER FACE

How about a 700bhp skyline? or a 650bhp Supra? Alas I have no wish to pay out the kind of money my friends have to running these cars. The TVR Chrimera aint to bad, the rover V8 also has a lovely roar, but it's a bit shit at the traffic lights as it keeps cutting out
Anyway for a n/a 2 litre car you can use every day it aint bad so stop your moaning and ranting lol
Chill people

I tried to film a standing start in the Skyline from the passenger seat. Alas I had no control over my limbs as it shot forward. I haven't been out in with the nitrous on yet, but I have a feeling its fecking scary

I must admit i sleted vtec, until i got to drive it, as a passenger i though it was just noise, driving them is so much fun, blasting through the darftford tunnel at 9500rpm in a dc5 is great fun.
