I understand that cars are a business, but performance is part of your corporate culture or it is absent. It's not a market that you can enter and leave as you please. It shows how little some brands care about their image and culture when they drop their signature cars for beige monotony.

Totally agree blur and the fact that it might not even be sold here in the states shows they aren't that serious about how popular the car is or they are waiting to see how the new alfa does before the decide to see if it would see over here. Prolly for that price it would have to be badged a Acura. I don't see too many people paying for a 60k Honda.

They had some nice cars back in the day. I agree though, if they're going to do performance cars then they have to be all in. Honda sells enough cars that they can put out a few monster cars.
