I like it... The car is pretty cool.but I will admit, I miss real wheel drive.
The do not make the V6 - 6 Speed in a Sedan anymore. I SERIOUSLY think Honda has lost some of their good insight and vision with their newest models. Honestly, the body styling is cool... however, they do not offer the manual transmissions to the correct segments... or they are limited which segments manual transmissions are offered to.

v6 6speed sedan=AWESOME.
mom has a 99 4cyl automatic accord coupe. i cant imagine how it would be with a v6 and 6spd
I'm going to break things up and post something that's not a Honda. 
My daily driver is a 2008 Ford Escape. I drive it for work all day. It's a FWD I4 and it's pretty much rubbish. The engine is a great engine but they put it in the wrong car.
My fun car is a 1991 Dodge Stealth R/T Twin Turbo. It's pretty much stock for now besides the free boost mod. I recently put a proper stereo in it. I have a lot of parts to go in, mostly interior, that I just don't have time to as I have another cr that I work on all the time.
Now for my project car which is a 1989 Chrysler LeBaron GTC Turbo 2. It's had a lot of work done, mainly body and paint. Right now it's up on stands getting A LOT of work done:
Brakes: Powder coated calipers, rebuilt, SS lines, new hard lines, Hawk HPS, pads, ATE Super Blue fluid, new rotors (painted the hats black).
Suspension: Koni (Reds) dampers, Eibach springs, all new poly bushings, all new mounting rubber, poly motor mounts & bobble strut, ball joints, and solid adjustable track bar.
Trans: New four puck clutch and flywheel.
Engine: O2, plugs, wires, coil, rear main, and valve cover & gasket.
Fuel: Walbro 255lp/h fuel pump, new hard lines, all new rubber lines, coating the tank in bed liner.
Steering: New rack, lines, pump, tie rods, and wheel bearings.
Underside: All new mounting for brake and fuel lines, all under body metal powder coated black, scraping off under coating and reapplying Eastwood chassis paint, and bed liner in wheel wells.

I like that idea. I'm far more into cars than video games anymore. I'm about as big a gear head you can be. I'm a fan of most any brand. There's really only one I can't stand right now and that's GM. Chrysler is on their way to joining that list if they don't get their butt in gear.

I suppose. I do like the Vette but everything else recently is just falling flat IMO. Plus, the way they're running the company has to change ASAP.
As for the porjects, there are a lot of 3S people out there but it's still the black sheep of the Japanese sports car segment. And the LeBaron, I know a few people with them as project cars, but I'm the first person to take one this far.
Bman, this is what I've been pedaling around:
Dig the Team Realtree cammo seat covers.
Still got the truck. This is the reason I will be doing a solid axle swap and convert it to four wheel drive:
And still have the Trans Am. Still in a state of deconstruction. Weather is cooling down so I'll be able to spend less time cutting grass and more time restoring it.

A Dodge Stealth haven't seen one of those in a long time! I didnt even know they came stock with twin-turbos. What psi are you runnin' on stock btw? Also is it AWD?
@Dart
Wow.. thats a very long bed! Yeah I remember you having that Trans-Am was wondering what happened to it.
@BV
Im guessing the reason why he has 2 gas tanks is cause one is a back up? Not to sure but I bet you he spending at least $100 per fill up. I kinda of figured BV would be driving a family van or something. :lol

Yeah, the Stealth R/T TT and the 3000GT VR-4 are the same car except the Stealth didn't get the active aero. I;m just running stock boost for now. I'm leaving the car alone until I'm done with the other one, then I'm going to town with the Stealth. Also, it's all wheel drive and all wheel steering.

Well, not this past summer, but the one before that, It would take about $95 or so to fill both tanks. For a few weeks during that summer, with prices at about $4 a gallon, I'd spend almost $160 a week. With a full two tanks, I'd get 320 or so miles out of that. The Elantra gets 320 on about $17 now that prices went down. I never fill both tanks now that I don't drive the truck that often.
