To anyone who's interested, I saw one of the first Honda 2000 coupes last night. Fresh off the boat - one of my neighbor's son-in-laws had brought it by his house last night. Appaently he works for a

Have you guys been reading what the press says about this car? I trust Road & Track, and they said this is the genuine article. I'm surprised how unimpressed Bryan was with the erngine sound, the R&T

The answer is: probably over 100,000 miles. The real question is, how often will you be wrapping it to 9000 rpm? You may eventually get used to it, but will the police? If memory serves, the R&T repo

I guess, I just look at all honda's as 'wannabe' cars. I have never jumped on the 'Honda Band wagon', and I view them as cheap well engineered 'disposable' economy cars. I have a lot of friends that

So basically the engine would only sound 'good' under hard acceleration such as getting on the freeway, or passing someone. That's one thing I like about my Sprite. It sounds good All THE TIME, and I

Do you really have to ask that question? It's a Honda! The Integra R-Type is similarly rev happy and there have been no consumer gripes about its reliability. Remember the consumers who buy these car

I would expect the 2000's engine to last for several hundred thousand miles. Honda has been doing high-RPM engines for just about forever. I doubt that anybody knows more about it than they do. Honda
