 Clean Hondas don't get enough love | « » 9:44 PM 4-24-2008 | |

My buddy's Si:
What do you guys think? I feel these cars will be quite sought after in the future personally. 
I have my very own little fanclub here that follows me around.

I have a clean Honda. It was washed, then had a car cover thrown over it and hasn't been driven in a week.

Do you understand what 'cleaner aero' is? Those items would not be on the RR if they weren't more aerodynamically efficient than the base model. You said, "I know" that it's stock, so I figure you'd know what the RR is. edit: btw there is no bodykit on the FG2 that you posted.

I understand that it comes from the factory pre-F&F'd out, and it ugly as sin. It is not "cleaner" in anyway, while it may be more performance oriented.

I belive you guys are talking of two different types of "clean". He's talking about a visual type of "clean", think: "smooth", "simple" or "shaved" - while you are talking about aerodynamicaly "clean", a.k.a "efficient".

Sorry, missed that one. But one of you clearly isn't understanding the other. OP: I agree, and you friends Civic looks good. Good looking Fit:

Definitely - IMO honda was building their best cars back in the early 90s.
This design defines honda and clean.

Sadly, no. I found it on my hard-drive and have no idea where it's from. Personally I've never liked the design of the current Fit either, but the new one (released in Japan last fall and should be here (in Europe) shortly) looks promising!
