It doesn't have to be a V8, but a heavily modded Honda has "Please Steal me and sell my mad tight JDM parts for lots of money" written all over it. Get an evo, wrx, even a freakin srt-4 (i cant believe i am actually typing that). It seems like every week I see a post about somebody's honda getting stolen. That is enough to keep me from even thinking about buying a nicely modded honda.

I wont even get to the point that it makes no sense to me to start with such a slow FWD car, and then pour lots of money into it to make it fast.
