DC5 I can understand, but an EP3? It's not exactly special is it
Jdm ep3 is my first choice if/when i have 10k.
Dc5 would be my second.
so you dont likeyour ep3/prefer a 182 but would spend 10k on a jdm one..
Yes as they are much better looking due to the colour of both exterior and interior, better spec, much rarer, quicker.

Buy a diesel if you dont like reving cars. With hondas you have the reassurance that they can be rev'd unlike a lot of other cars.
The ep3 vtec kicks in at 6 and goes up to 8.5 and the vtec in the fd2 are lower down the revs.
For you to not notice the extra power in the vtec region the cars you were driving must have had no oil or low on feul because anyone can feel an increase in power, including those who dislike them because they arent the same as every other car.

Motoring press disagree with you and found their opinions on fact rather than stereotypes

i was looking at a s4 that s6 is lovely..........
thing is if i was to buy an m3 i do have a couple of other vehicles i could sell if the worst was to happen so i could raise 4-5k in the worst case scenario, but this would mean selling my bike but hey ho lol
mark i spose its somat i could look into how has yours been to run has it cost much etc etc?
mate about the vtec thing i love revvy engines i hate diesals...... now i know this sunds silly to you maybe but i prefer power from a normal n/a engine to be there from the off not as high up as what honda gives you...... cant help it i just think the vtec thing is silly dunno why just not impressed by it...... i bet a m3 has the kind of power delivery i would like no... 
that is one way to ruin a evo     
when people say 10k gets you dog of a m3 are these 2 below dogs or am i missing somat?
