Default Danica Patrick and the new Civic commercial

Just caught it ... kinda cute but I am more interested in seeing more of the car ... she did seem to show some of the performance of the vehicle.

Anyone plan on test driving it when it comes out?

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

I LOVE that commercial! I can't seem to find it online though. Met her this Summer in St Pete - very nice girl, and did I mention HOTNESS????

Next weekend, in Miami, Honda is having an autocross with the new Si's, which won't be out until December.
I'm planning a road trip next week to Miami!!!
Plus they are hosting an all Honda car show/ cruise.

Yes, Honda is Japanese. The car isn't. US build and design.

If that wasn't the case, this car would have came out like 5 years ago in Japan. Sorta like the EP3, the Honda tuners in Japan felt it was a let down from Honda. So everyone jump on the Integra, aka RSX.

If you havn't noticed in the past 4 years, HOnda lost its interest in the performance market years ago, hence why the huge sales in the WRX, STi, EVO, RX8, etc, etc jump to breaking records.

Honda is trying to bring that back. Hopefully, something like the rumor-type CRX will bring back it name in the US.

For now, I still like my old Honda. Plain and simple yet fun economy fast cars to drive.
