95 prelude si 5 speed vs. 06 ss/sc
basically, i pull up to a red light... it's like 1 in the morning. nobody around, than this prelude newest gen. w.e. i dont know pulls up and revs his little lawn mower engine. i roll down my black tinted window and give him the thumbs down and smile. he rolls down his pos window and says **** you ****** ss stands for superslow... get a real import bitch... i simply say let your car back up your mouth. race me and shut up. he says ok. i roll back 1 car length to give him at least a little advantage. lol light turns green he is screaming his motor and gunning it like crazy. i half my half throttle in 1st to eliminate tire spin. i don't even get to go through fully in 2nd before i have 3 lengths on him... i put on my hazards to show that my fake import ate his real import... figuretively speaking of course. he doesnt say nothing he doesnt even stop for the next red light i was already stopping at to say you are the man i love your cobalt you know what i mean... he turned right and went home with his tail between his legs probably. i swear people and there honda's think since they have a loud pipe they can beat the world. i hope i see this guy again and i'll say... nice real import you have there. figured someone will get a kick out of this story... so for future refrence guys... if a honda pulls up next to you just roll down your window and give the thumbs down... roll it back up and turn. dont waste your gas like i did.

I used to own an Acura and loved it. They bashed Cobalts and Neons. You guys bash Hondas. I know it's natural but it really is dumb to just blanket bash an entire car make.

ok ok... naturally aspirated honda? with the acception of a nsx and s2k. nsx are ugly and should be junked but are quick. and the s2k's are perfect cars as far as mazda miata's go... i mean honda s2000's. it just pisses me off that the ******* said "get a real import you ******" what part of chevy did this honda owner not understand?

only good import (jap and chinese) STOCK are the rx7's/rx8's(for autocross etc..), s2k aka fast miata, integra gsr... hmmm anyone else think of any? stock american cars now... mustang gt, cobra, new gt500 cobra, saleen, cobalt SS/cobalt ss/sc/tc, chevy camaro, ford lightning, caddy cts-v, trailblazer ss, jeep srt 8, srt4... viper, dodge srt10 the truck? should i keep going.... hands down in order to have a fast import. you must swap, add, convert etc... on america's side. we usually sell our cars fast stock. oh i forgot about the acura rsx type s. i always wantd a type s before i bought my balt... but something about the cobalt just said "buy me baby you won't regret it" and ya know what... i dont regret it at all. it's been nothing but happiness over here guys. can anyone concur?
let me make a correction... this guy was 17-18... with a sideways hat... i shulda asked him where to buy a sideways hat with a flat bill... it's usually the younger crowd that are all egotistical... imagine if someone gave you the thumbs down... would you flip out and curse etc... or would you keep your window shut and show up the other guy who gave you the thumbs down? i didn't say one word. i made one gesture and let my car do the talking

meh. I wouldn't have even looked over. Happened to me a few times. If I would have said something though, it probably would have been along the lines of, "So, are you just naturally gay, or you just trying really hard?"

Dude...you started off wrong. Why would you give a fellow enthusiast the thumbs down? You lowered yourself to ******* status right there.
Yeah, grats on your kill, but no class, sportsmanship or respect for another auto enthusiast. Next time give him the thumbs up and say "Nice car bro, its clean." or something like that. They will probably show you the same respect and you may even be able to make a friend.
PS Brad....I still hate you and your overly clean car. :P

I used to have an RSX-S. Now an 08 SS.
I see people in all kinds of cars doing the same ****.. from civics, to Mustang GTs to Dodge Rams.
Good kill! I would have done the same. I kind of did. Yesterday some kid in a Probe GT revved twice at me. Had his girl with him. I let him go first and just laid into 2nd gear a bit - all it took.

hazzards are super-ricer-style-ninja slap. Seriously, sell the cobalt. I only do hazzards to my friends as a joke of how stupid it is. Hate douches.

Transmission- Replaced 2x
Timming gears - About 5x

not the si's that generation si cars were the 2.3 block non vtec with better suspension pieces and really short gears, but they still did 155. it was a track car and pretty good at it, just a little over 2800 pounds. with an almost 50-50 weight transfer. the 2.3 had 160hp and 160tq the vtec had 190hp. the vtec ones run low to flat 15's. with a great driver in the prelude and a crappy one in a ss/sc i could see it being a close race

Don't start **** with people at stop lights ? FTW.. Start **** .. If asking to race is starting **** you would have to be the biggest ***** on this earth who is affraid to loose.
B20 .. WHAT IS THIS KID TALKING ABOUT !!!!
How many times are you gunna run 10 second 1/4ths ? ONCE !!! You obviously havent seen the dudes sig with the pinks episode or watched it.
You may run 10's a few passes before your little hampster runs out of breath.
B20 average run with more then 400 HP non stock internals is 10 passes ..
WOW!
here is a reminder on B-20 POWER!!
