Where to start...
I've always criticized Honda, simply because they stopped making the Acura NSX. But new opinions will be formed. They've perfected the low-price civilian sedan. They had made huge strides in the car consumer market, and really put themselves on the world stage. Now we have sensible kids spending their money on a Civic when they grow up.
And I began to see why it was such a popular commercial vehicle for your everyman. The original Civic Hatchback was a beautifully simple car, the LX Sedans were even better, then the GX, the best. But 7th generation set itself apart, while retaining common attributes. The inconspicuous design and comfortable ride. Rectangular body, but this time more subdued. But most importantly...
The S2000.
