The New Grocery Getter from Honda
Not to shabby for a sedan though a 4 door now with the same 197 hp makes me question the weight difference between the coupe and the sedan for the weight to power ratio.

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 would buy that car if i had the money for it, it looks nice!
