I can't believe Leaky hasn't had anything to say in this thread yet!

 

I wouldn't dare comment on the comfort, harshness and road holding of his clubby!

Just to balance this out a bit..

Why bother making a car go faster, handle better, corner faster etc.. When you can only drive at 70mph on the road anyway..
 

 
70 mph speed limit?  Not round here! (outside of the towns anyway) :P

Fair point you can aslong as your not furious while doing it.. Lol

You wouldn't want a heavily lowered car there anyway would you..

Jap is the way forward! :D they're all so different and lots to look at, just loads better than vdubs - Low and slow copycat crap ^_^

 

Case in point the infamous, Mr.Jake Looney.

Now as well as Vw's and Minis, I've always been around Hondas in my life, I wouldn't call myself an out and out enthusiast although I have a soft spot for em'...anyways back on point, of all the civics, accords s2k's I've ever seen this is hands down the coolest Honda ever. Don't argue, it's the truth. YURT.

I'm sure a lot of use know the car and story, but for those who don't google it!! His car really did split opinions because of his NoneFvcks attitude haha!!

Point proven. It's definitely the only car that I know of that has divided opinions on so many forums...he was even subject to FailBook hate groups in his honour...stoopid really, just because he built his car the way he wanted too!! I love it, it's amazing =)

Nath, I'm guessing mainly to do with the mental camber?

I thought it was the milka EG at first, but that's a different one!
