    Didn't see any pics of any Honda on here

    The clue is in the website name, it's for photos of wrecked EXOTIC cars

        Honda is under the name "Acura NSX"

        There used to be a Ferrari kit for the Turbo MR2, here's an example

            Sorry, poorly worded. I really meant styled on a Ferrari.

            When toyota brought out the mark 3 version of the MR2, they actively touted it in showrooms as 'aimed at people who might consider purchasing a Porsche Boxter.' I kid not. A salesman actually said this within earshot of me to a potential customer.

                I want a car with huge t*ts at front and big a*se at the back. Performance, reliability, etc. are irrelevant.

                  If you look at many japcrap car designs, many of them are just inferior lookalikie copies. The MR2 mark 2 was based on a Ferrari. The latest Nisson sports is an attempted copy of a Porsche.
                  The mk 3 MR2 was a great little car. More of a reliable alternative to a Lotus Elise than anything else. Nissan Gtr is immense, defys the laws of physics, proper petrol heads car.

                    When you drive at night why do so many recent cars look so evil? Those horrible bright, slitty headlights look like evil characters from Transformers.
