Alright, what do you all really think of Hondas. Don't jump on a Honda bashing band wagon. Say your likes and dislikes. I'm doing this because it seems like everyone likes to jump on the "I hate Honda" bandwagon. What are the reasons? Just curious.

Ok, Honda, they are Economy cars, thats all they are well-known for. Other than that Honda sucks. Honda sucks for speed, performance, and looks. I think the looks of a Honda suck...
The Fuel efficent Honduh is only good for that fact. I Just tired of the fact that people take the fuel efficent Honda Civic, and make it look like something it is not. I get tired of "Oh my honda can smoke a stock mustang" It can, because you spent so much money into that POS, when if you put that same money into the Mustang, itd smoke the modified honda. If I really wanted to make a fast car, I'd take a V8 Ford Thunderbird, or V8 Mustang, id put my money into that.
But that I4 Honda Civic...  
Edit: Also i remember driving my uncle's Honda Accord, that thing sucked royal balls... The seat felt like hard cactus, unlike my Contour seat that fits my groove. the ugly H in the steering wheel... the LCD Odometer/stereo/clock display units, the engine light... He then got an Acura 3.2TL type S, that thing just has the most unconfortable feel when I sit in the driver seat (Considering the Honda logo is all over that crapura...) and it didnt feel as sporty as i thought it would be....

I don't hate Honda's if modified nicely. Which is about 10% of them. So I hate 80% of Honda's with big wings, fart cans, stoooopid graphics and do the 1/4 in 19 seconds.

Good points. Honestly, of the Hondas I had, I didn't like them for their acceleration. They were just good zip around town vehicles. They nearly always started without hesitation and were very easy to work on. I didn't like being part of the Honda crowd though. So many idiots drive them. I won't lie.

I think honda's are great cars. They are reliable as hell; my girlfriend's has 250,000 MILES on it, and I know a few other people with over 150,000. 2 weeks ago her battery went bad, took it out and it WAS THE ORIGINAL BATTERY! I am sold on honda reliability and would own one in a heartbeat, especially the new accords.
