I like the exteriors, but the interiors suck. Everything is plastic, and its all one piece at that. The steering wheel looks terrible, and the cars are underpowered IMO. I-VTEC is pretty nifty though.

+1 on the speed 3, those are nasty. I sat in a new SI today at Hondaland, it was in first gear but there was so much play I thought it was neutral.
