Another cool car we won't get here

I guess I see now why Honda won't send that over to the States. Here we are on an enthusiasts forum (you know......"car people") and most of the responses are negative. If we won't drive it, how the heck would the general public go for it?

The grass is always greener. Growing up in Europe we said the same thing about all the cool American cars. I'm sure the Japanese thought the same. BTW, I am not in any way upset we can't get that abomination, I thought we left the F&F period behind 7 or 8 years ago.

Out of curiosity, what did you guys think was cool of what we had?

I'm an Si guy and I wouldn't even sit in that ugly thing. Give me the motor, though.

Corvette, Mustang, Viper, Camaro, Fireturkey etc. When the first Viper was release the old Top Gear tested it and took one too Monaco, JC posed around in it and it got more attention than all the traditional exotics. I remember being as stoked to see the Viper when I went to LeMans as the Bugatti EB110.

Yeah, like the new Kia Rondo. Not available in the US.
