I always was under the impression that Hondas & Toyotas were for people who don't work on their own cars & have no passion. Just me. I know the kids like 'em, but after the dump $20,000 on a thump box, wheels and a Trash Can muffler --what do they have? Nuthin.
They coulda took the original 10 grand + the 20 & got an Older Camaro (even a new one!) or a nice 2007 MC!
I just plain love Fossil fuel powered cars! (all of them) I'm tired of hearing how bad American cars are though. Just go to the Junk Yard -- What do you see? Hondas & Yodas!

Not to be a downer, but I actually find more American made cars in the yard than I do foreign. I personally can not deny them their reputation on reliability. However, what you first said about how they're cars for people without automotive passion or who are willing to work on their own cars, I do believe in that. To a point. There are a TON of loyal Honda owners who DO customize and work on their own cars. There probably isn't a bigger tuner following than for the Hondo Civic. You can't deny that. And the people who truly are passionate about their import tuners, are serious about it. They're not spending $10K on sound systems (some are), they're adding turbo's, tunes, exhaust systems, cams, pulleys, injectors, etc. You get the idea.
I support American made cars and other products because that's what I believe in and that's how I was raised. But I can't close my eyes to what is the truth.

X 2 ^^^
for some a car is just a tool and they will never understand why some one loves there car and puts so much time in to it
and for others there car is more that just something to get you from point A to B it is there passion / Obsession ( like me and many others )
I guess that is why I am car crazy!! LOL

I respect what you are saying about the tuner cars. It's great if they truly know what they are doing! Don't see alot of those
at the strip or street here in KC. Most of it is junk. I've seen so many blown
up V-tec motors from a Noz bottle-- it would make your head spin. What I was tryin' to say is that there alot of people out there dropping mega $$$ on their kids rides - that don't know what they are doing. You could get a '69 Z-28 for 30 grand! Hello!
They come over & expect me to fix/or fiqure out whats wrong. usually there is
nothing left to tune w/#1 rod hangin' out the side of the block.
A car is only as reliable as the owner. if you take care of it --it takes care of you. Case in point: My '70 C-10 has a 334,000 mile L-48 350 in it. Only things
I've had to to do to it is a Timing Chain replacement & Quadrajet Rebuild besides regular maintenance. I'm going for the Million Mile club ...
