not necessarily true. if a car is done up nice and puts out numbers, then the emblems on the exterior don't mean jack.

We don't have a problem with Honda. Honda makes a good car, a good reliable engine and everyone and their grandmother drives. Its just that most of the Honda drivers have Civics that are just ugly as hell and have 1000+ HP increase from all the decals that are plastered on every inch of the car. Especially those who have to let you know that their Honda is powered by Honda... as if I had to guess...

Anyways, I have several friends with some really nice Honda Preludes. Stock, they are way underpowered, but I'm sure with 400whp, that's gotta be a hell of alot of fun. I took a ride in my friend's 320 whp Integra.. that was a rush.

Wait, you mean that doesn't give you more hp? Great! Back to the drawing board...
