You said it in a nutshell, its an adrenaline rush and well VTEC just sounds the nuts, its a big boys toy and a respected one.:D
 
Well in all fairness, I had more fun driving my RS1800 :lol: I would say that was more down to a bit of the fear factor chucked in.

But I feel alot safer in this car and it sounds wicked with my piper system. Plus I know that it's one of the best handling cars around and my gf likes it
 
I liked the engine, looks and gearstick.

Hated the ten a penny factor and the fact they are so cheap nowadays they're being snapped up by weapons.
 
everyday useability mixed with performance on tap when needed......

p,s I dont think they stand out from the crowd at all,barley gets a glance.
 
The fact that my 'mates' enjoy stealing my ariel!

And the empty rear half of the car!!
 
The best thing is knowing you're on your way to a better car like a Golf GTI FSI or a Megane 250 cup. After 4 years of high reving honda it can become boring. Though I've used the EP3 as a van which has been practical & stayed in great nick apart from the odd scratches in the boot, but it's only a boot.
 
Sitting on the 2nd row of the grid at Brands Hatch waiting for the red lights to go out and racing to start knowing You are driving a car capable of winning the race, then turning it back into a road spec car and still being able to traffic light grand prix but in comfort ;)
 
The fact that you can overtake people without wondering if it'll run out of steam before you pass the car in front.

The fact that I can drop the missus off at her mums, then have some real fun without getting an ear full.

The handling is sublime for a FWD car.

The 'wet look' of the pearlescent NHB paintwork after a good polishing sesh.

It isn't anywhere nearly as compromised as a daily driver as many other hot hatches.

The roar of VTEC with a decent induction system (my personal favourite). ;)
