An Awsome Honda


Recommended Posts

I love my Lexus 1992 Es300. Sporty, and still very high tech. 0-60mph in 4 seconds and all stock parts. Love her.  :blush:  :whistle:  :rolleyes:

I highly doubt your car does 0-60 in 4 seconds in stock condition. Most Porsches can't even do that, let alone some 13 year old Lexus ES.

Anyways, Sharque, do you have any other pictures of "your" car? You keep showing the same ones that look like scans from a magazine or something...

It looks great for another soulless Japanese appliance... There are so many great cars from that era with passion and soul and the legend is not one of them. Hell my Chevy Lumina Z34 looked like a work of art compared to that boxy toaster (nm the fact it would leave you sitting in a cloud of burnt rubber)

Acura RL

Click on the above link if you folks are interesed in the 2005 Variant of my Legend - This is the new version of the original car (even the name has been changed to RL) but hey it still exists!  a cool design with hi tech features and the honda reliablity - this may well be my next car :p .

This is a bargain Luxury car - cheaper than a lexus and half the price of Similar spec'd mercs n bmw's yet u get even more feature n power

While the new RL is bad ASS and flat out BEAUTIFUL....its hardly a cheap way to go any more...its 50k+. Pretty expensive considering you can get an ES Lexus for 40. But the RL is awesome. Great interior styling too.

Yeah, the fact that it can go for over 200,000 miles on original parts isn't special, while your domestic is requiring full engine work. I've never seen a domestic car hit over 200,000 on original parts. I have seen a Honda hit 243,000 on all original.

That's funny I have 2 cars and a van that are domestic with no less 220,000 miles on it original motors and minimal work done to them. My friend jess has a 96 Saturn SL1 with 275,000 miles on it and it still runs great. It doesn't burn oil it has only routine maintenance done to it... Everyone I know driving a Japanese car has a ton of problems (my mom will be the first to complain about the sludge sitting in the bottom of her 99 Camry XLE motor) compared to my friends driving domestics.. Most older Japanese cars riding around put out gobs of smoke every time they accelerate (older Eclipses or Civics anyone?). I still see plenty of domestics riding around from the 80's but not many Japanese cars from that decade because they are all rusted out in a junk yard. My aunt's POS Accord was given the nickname the $500 car because every time something breaks it costs at least that much to fix (She recently ditched it for a Ford 500 AWD). My cousin has three Civics and he changes the timing belts like he changes his underwear. His 99 civic had the motor rebuilt in it already. That's enough examples for now but I can go on and on... Are domestic cars and trucks flawless no but neither are Japanese cars like you are led to believe. Say what you want about American cars they cost a lot less to repair and most GM cars with OHV motors are super reliable (3800 Series)

Well, I think its the way the driver maintains and uses the car - Harsh usage of certain cars can contribute to its early decline... some give up sooner than others. If the Driver regulary services the car and drives it okay i dont see a problem with its drivability:pp but imo i ve seen more of the japanese cars lasting longer miles than other ones:blink::

haha yea right, 200,000 miles on original parts.. not even a tuneup needed or battery change right? Tell me where do you live again? Alot of how your car runs depends on nature's elements. Let me guess you have the original brake pads and rotors also correct? Probably the same tires too haha.

We have 3 "domestic" and a mitsubishi, well the mitsubishi has another prob with the tranny today.. so dont gimme that bs.

that honda you see hit on 243,000 original, you probably saw an extra zero or two there .

Anyway all this doesnt change the fact that the honda in this thread isnt anything special.

yeah if you correct those things your car might actually look pretty sweet. but the spoiler have to be changed and the rims too. and window covers need to be gone  ;)

585657015[/snapback]

Alright... I ve done a few changes after a lot of complaints :blink: now i guess it looks pretty normalish... Replaced the Rims, Spoilers and got rid of the window covers, Side skirts :happy:, reduced the front windows tint to 0% and finally i also added some new Xenon Headlamp bulbs and fog lights :laugh:

    • Microsoft releases Visual Studio Code 1.124 with smarter autonomous AI agents by Paul Hill Microsoft has just released Visual Studio Code 1.124 with a focus on faster agent workflows and improved agent autonomy. Microsoft outlined the following features as the key items in this update: Autopilot: Autopilot, enabled by default, is now smarter to determine when a task is truly done. Background sessions: Quickly send a request in the background and keep composing the next session. Session navigation: Search, jump, and step through agent sessions with the keyboard. Browser history: Revisit and search pages you've already opened in the integrated browser. With VS Code 1.124, Microsoft has enabled Autopilot by default. For those that don’t know, Autopilot is a chat permission level that you can pick to give agents permission to take initiative and act autonomously, without needing explicit user approval for each action. Also related to Autopilot, Microsoft introduced Advanced Autopilot, which changes how Autopilot decides when to keep iterating and when to finish. This helps you get more complete results without manually monitoring loops. This feature works using a small utility model that reads a transcript of the chat and decides when the task is done. Another new feature in 1.124 is the Agents window, which lets you easily explore, iterate on, and review agent sessions across projects and machines. Previously, starting a new agent session meant waiting for it to load before you could compose the next one. With this update, sessions can be requested in the background. This VS Code update also brings session navigation updates to switch between them more quickly. The update also lets you reload or reopen the Agents window so that it no longer loses your layout, so you will land back where you left off. If you use the integrated browser in VS Code, you will notice that it now retains the history of visited pages. Suggestions will now show when typing in the URL bar and can be managed by using Ctrl+H within a browser tab. The browser now also lets you customize the toolbar more; just right-click on the toolbar area to the right of the URL input. Finally, the browser has faster agentic text entry. Another improvement is experimental enterprise-managed Copilot plugin policies that allow admins to centrally control which chat plugins and plugin marketplaces are available to developers. If you have VS Code installed, 1.124 should install automatically, or you'll get a prompt. If you don't have it installed, get it here.
