the momo steering wheel is

but doesnt match the 370Z knob im running on my G quite perfectly. needs more angular lines. 370z knob too round. so, new knob ordered.

at least it's not expensive like the twm biggie type-r knob.

Hi all, checking in on my lunch break. It's a beautiful day in Chicago, drove with the sunroof open.

Kenchan, have you seen the 2015 Fit? Thoughts?

One things for sure, it definitely didn't go the way of the Accord. That thing is almost as hideous as a Versa hatch

yah, ive only see picts but i have to agree... thing looks more and more like a plasticy dust vac...

i luv the current accord sedan design. so simple and nice looking, kinda old skool.

i remember people were saying it looked like the genesis sedan.

f- that.... i saw a genesis sedan and it looked like shitt compared to the current accord sedan.

The tail lights have a close resemblance to the Genesis Sedan. But agree, the current Accord was a step in the right direction. The 8th gen Accord was a flop. I do hate Honda's VCM garbage on their v6s though. Too much unnecessary complications to an otherwise great engine for a measly 1-2mpg gain.

Did you see the fit will have a CVT now?

yah, if i ever get an accord sedan, it would be the 4 banger 6MT.

having some fun in the MT.

how do you get the trademark?

ZMan8 · 04-09-2014, 03:14 PM

The other problem with the fit is they added a 6th gear for the mt, but the final drive ratio remained the same as the old one.

my MT can still get 36mpg+ on hwy which is more than enough for me. maybe not for poor people that usually buys these cars.

lol

some folks are pissed off when tires dont last like 30K miles. wtf... 30k miles on cheap narrow all season tires. lol
