Always...

The EP3 AutoX crowd NEEDS to be bigger.

Little known fact (ok opinion)....

I think the EP3 can/will be the closest thing to an 89 Si that Honda has made since. With the right mods (and a GOOD driver)...it's an EXCELLENT car for AutoXing.

*hint hint*

Honestly...I'm retarded and my previous Honda knowledge is SEVERELY limited...so..... S2 ??? lol

But about the weight...that is honestly NOT a problem with the right suspension set-up. The car's weight CAN be dealt with properly and with some decent tires...I'm betting it won't be long until an EP3 is right behind (if not in FRONT of) an 89 Si. (Ok...maybe a long shot...but it's nice to dream)

I have a new found faith in modern Honda's for AutoXing...and I WON'T give it up until I'm proven wrong. lol

The 89 Si was a great car. I had that car & still loves it. Comparing it with the latest EP3 Si, I think both cars have power to weight ratio. The 89 Si was a lot lighter but it only have 106hp stock.

DAMN YOU!!!

I thought I was retarded not knowing what an "S2" was...

lol (I was even about to start researching the "Honda S2" on Google, lol)

But yeah, I guess I was more speaking of the AFFORDABLE honda's...yes, the civic family.

And to FURTHER prove my point, there was a 2000 Si (blue even) that had run with GRM down in Texas...yeah...he and I were DEAD even through the heat. And he's been driving it since 2000 when it was new...and been AutoXing for even longer. This is my first year, and I hung with him? C'Mon...lol Who says the old Si's are better? lol
