I think it moved a little listening to that...imagine what would happen if I were twisting that throttle.

When you absolutely, positively have to be the first one to the scene of the fatality.

Love the RC30 and the NR750 but the RC45 is my favorite.

this is my cool Honda... well, not this exact one, but looks just like it... puts a smile on my face everytime we cross paths.

it's a gas to drive... some people see them as the modern take on the Prelude..

My next car may be a v6 Accord coupe with the 6 speed manual trans. IF i can find one...

OK, I'll go old skool-ish Honda Bikes:

93 CBR 900 (if anyone has a line on this one PLEASE IM me!)

And just cuz I can, a prototype that shoulda been, but never was. The NR750 OVAL piston powered bike.

My friend has a pretty cool one... I can't remember the exact year....somewhere between 73 and 77. He cafe'd it as well.

Similar to this...

Now I miss my '95 Civic EX coup. What a great car that was.

If Honda would replicate part for part a 2001 Civic EX 4 door 5 speed and could sell it for $15,000 I'd buy one tomorrow. In 2001 I bought the same car in a 2 door. For what it was it was an awesome car. I averaged 41mpg. 48mpg on trips from KC to Springfield, MO on the weekends to see my college girlfriend. The 5 speed was like shifting through melted butter. So smooth. 1.7 Vtec had enough power to be exciting if you needed it to be but was stupid reliable. I drove it 100k and passed it onto my brother who put another 100k on it before it was wrecked.

I'd love to find an old lady with one with low miles to pick up as a daily driver. What I'd really like is Honda to reproduce it. I know there are more airbag, emissions, and other BS laws but I hope in the future that car makers do more reproduction vehicles that are exactly the same as the originals.

It's called a k-swapped EK. 100+ more HP than you had back then and ~40MPG if you can keep your foot out of it all the time.

Damn, thought this was going to be a twin cylinder RC125M Works bike with the Ribi Quadrilateral link front suspension thread...

For a shit ton of "All Things Cool Honda", a visit to the Honda Collection Hall is in order. Since most of us aren't as fortunate as my buddy who works for Delta and can walk on a flight to anywhere, at least we have the Google.

Trail 70s come up all the time on BaT. My parents refusal to buy me one (or the grail, a Hodaka Combat Wombat) was the source of much teen angst in my formative years.

I remember when I thought Hondas were cool. I had a couple Preludes and was sure that they were sports cars. Then I bought an actual sports car.

You get to twist it a lot. Had something like 16 gears I think.

I would totally buy one of those over the current transformer hatchback abortions. I don't think classic style changes, newer car aesthetics are not growing on me and I miss more simple lines.

You have the right of it in that the best Honda isnt best because of its looks, (though I will give props to the RC45, that someone posted, it's gorgeous) but I think this one is the better candidate.

Take the MSF course and get to it. Ain't nothing stopping you. One of the best decisions I ever made.

I had an 84 vf500. It was AWESOME, put like 12k miles in 2 years on it in Fairbanks AK. then sold for cash to buddy and bought avatar bike. I used to do stupid things with a pack of us outside town, the CBR600's and GSXr600;s would be able o outrun me on the straight aways, but come twisties i OWNED them, i once got clocked at 100+ in a 45 MPH

... cop let me off with a warning and "keep that crap outside of town"
