Would you like to argue this point? I don?t think that commercials tell anything about the driver, but rather the kind of driver the company is trying to attract to the vehicle.
Even though it doesn?t matter, I am older than you, and I have spent many an hour under the hood of all of the cars I have owned. Ford, Ford, Honda, Ford, Honda, Pontiac, Ford, Ford, Mazda, Nissan, Mazda, and Daihatsu. No, I don?t race for money. I just like to drag boot on 1431. I don?t have the urge to compete. IF I wanted to race on Motegi, I guess I could. Would take a lot of licenses though. I don?t hate on the car, just people who sip too much kool-aid. I just tell you what a car is good for. You put a normally powered engine H22 (220 hp) in a light vehicle, and yes you will have a faster car. The fact that neither of the cars can stand as "fast" by themselves tells not of the greatness of Honda. Like the guy who wanted to swap an H22 in his GST. 4 grand for 30 less hp, plus much less easy potential. If you want to compare, look into a Ford Mustang SVO, or a Dodge Colt with a 4g63 swap. Still a 2.something, put with more power, and more potential.
Be nice if the US got the Nissan Pulsar and the Starlet. That would be a nice mix of power and economy. To get it in the US you have to swap big engine into Econoboxes.

way to read my post and refute my points. how could you really think that your age was part of my point? who the hell cares if you are older than i am?
man, the "personal attack" was to show that its not fair to make generalizations. i dont care how old you are. i dont care what you watch on tv. i dont care about your lack of experience. my point is that your opinion is based of lack of experience with the subject. you probably forgot. the subject is if 368 should replace his metro with a gsr. why would he swap a 4g63 or vw engine???
