Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

Doesn't really concern me and I'm not that interested in it in the first place.

I'm not hating, I'm just not excited.

I'm a bit of a focus fanboi so I may be a bit overly excited...

 

To each their own.

I like them, don't get me wrong. I just have no reason to be excited about a new model.

 

I think the only one I've really liked was the FR200.

I was actually a Honda Technician in my "previous life" (Before this whole Tech Company thing fell in my lap) and I just picked up my 63rd Honda, a 2015 Honda CR-V

 

She is a super-clean Kona Coffee Metallic AWD EX-L with tons of OEM Bits coming. Window Visors, Snowboard Attachments, Mudflaps, Some suspension stuff, and of course All-Weather Mats.

Here she is and sorry for lame cell-phone pics but I have to admit the Nex6 Stock Cam is not too shabby in HDR:

Damn, 63rd Honda? That's a lot of cars owned. Also, put those pics in a spoiler.

Yeah something like that. There is just no better value, and the engineering does not get any better. Especially the newer products they are shipping soon.

Well we know its going to use the 2.3L turbo DI inline 4, and a new AWD system, other than that we dont know a whole lot yet.

 

My local dealer has ordered two already but even they have no idea what it will cost.

I didn't put a spoiler, i just removed them to eliminate lifetime scrolling. You should put your images in your post in a spoiler.  Why should I watch my mouth? You're the one using the f bomb.

Yeah I get it. The winky face helped.. :P

 

But that can easily be misjudged and seen as serious (it's the internet, after all).

 

I just don't want any flame wars happening, because I feel like it could get out of hand REAL quick, especially on a car thread

I'd like to refer you to the anti-ass rules:

 

Fanboying is looked down upon.

Car guys respect other car guys. If you are into Americana,Japanese cars or european cars or anything in between you are welcome

And respect other peoples opinion. I do not like the 2JZ. You might. And there is nothing wrong with that

Blatantly bashing any cars from a certain market. Be it american cars,Japanese cars or european cars. without basis is dumb. And should not be done in this thread.

This is mostly because it's tiresome to read through and can start an argument. Debate is fine. Arguments are just a waste of time.

 

Do not bash another guys car.

Because it's a dick move. And being a dick is against the CoC (harharhar)

I put the winky face in for a reason. :)

Terry's always an asshole.

 

Congrats on the CRV man! I'm more of a Nissan person for Jap cars but my uncle has a 2007 (2008 in US) CRV and it's so much nicer inside than our 2008 Nissan X-Trail (The last Japanese crossover that goes well offroad).
