just to add another opinion: i dont care so much about how my car looks, as long as its simple and not messy. my goal is speed. the reasons i drive an accord rather than a mustang or something else are: i love the fact that no one expects an accord to be fast and if i make one fast, ive really accomplished something. also insurance for a v8 is so much more than for my accord. and although it is not a major concern of mine, it is nice that my car gets about 28 miles/gallon.
yes, a lot of import dudes put money into their weak engines and get nothing out of it. as you should know by now not all of us are like this and i can't understand the reasoning behind why people do this either.
my accord, after the h22 swap and turbo (glee) and of course i/h/e will easily be 300hp at the crank. i dont know if you think all people who have an interest in imports are the same, but trust me we're not. so dont group us together. let them do their thing and we'll do ours.
