Replying to: snakeweasel (Mar 31, 2007 9:59 am) Secondly, have you ever noticed that you never seem to answer questions that are directed at you? You only point fingers and then fade away when faced with a decent adversary. Please do us all a favor and think before you type. Your posts are riddled with contradictory statements. Most of the time, we just let them slide. Thanks for playing, Snake.  -Moo

Replying to: isellhondas (Mar 28, 2007 12:20 pm) isell--the honda salesman at my local dealership went with me to test drive the Civic SI sedan. He drove it first--and pretty irresponsibly if you ask me. He was a young guy and trying to impress me I guess. It is a car that is hard to drive without pushing the rpms. In the end a bit too much car for me. I also drove the Mazdaspeed3. The (young) salesman wasn't going to let me because his GM didn't want anyone taking it for "joy rides". I guess they determined I was a serious customer and relented. As the salesman is testing it first he blows out of the lot and up to 60mph on a narrow two lane in the bat of an eye. While he's flooring it he says, "yeah, we've had two customers and the GM himself wreck a couple of mazdaspeed6s and an RX8 on test drives in the last year or two!" As I drove the car back to the dealership I realized that the car would turn me into a crazed adrenaline junkie w/plenty of tickets in short order. I opted for a much more restrained middle trim Mazda3, 5 door, over the Civic mostly because of the hatchback. Some cars just invite a level of lunacy. I don't envy any salesperson who goes on regular test drives of fast cars. Gogiboy
