anything with honda in it they can sue you for, its a trademarked name, you cant use it for your own personal gains(ie, traffic, search engine results, or any other way which makes the site with honda in it) it makes the false presumption that the site in question is a child company or afilliate of the actual morot company. trademarks are protected under federal law, so the chances of winning the suit, expecially after their 04 case in which the precident was set, is about 0

What about using "Honda" in the name with a ".org" suffix? I mean, .org is reserved for any site that is not for profit. I don't think it would be too hard to prove that this site is not for profit. It might have ads, but I really don't think Kalvin is making money off of this site. And since Stefan no longer uses the Styledright name I don't see a problem there.
