In the early 1960's Honda's toe-dip into the American market was demurely announced with a now iconic print advert for the Honda Cub that simply read, "You meet the nicest people riding a Honda". The concept's objective was to develop an image for potential customers that strongly differed from societies almost unanimous association of motorized two-wheel transport with violent, anarchic biker gangs. The ad successfully launched not only Honda but a new concept in advertising so effective that it's changed little, if at all, in the 50 years since. Amazingly, Honda products themselves would have an even greater impact on mobility and human technical progress in the decades to come, but ironically, and to me most interestingly, while for the next 40 years Honda products did become a primary tool for tens of thousands of individuals seeking to differentiate themselves from others, customer objective was a 180 reversal of the original ad's message. Just like bikers, these customers generated relationships with their whips, and in everything from their paint, wheels, sound, and even driving habits, the point was to tell the world that they were NOT interested in mainstream approval, that in fact, they could go fark themselves if slammed orange hatchbacks pissed them off. That said, unlike many Harley dudes, Mopar freaks and the Ford hardcore, Honda tuners don't take looking serious too seriously. They aren't obsessed with tired tropes about masculinity and patriotism, arent willing to drive heavy, ponderous beasts or give up cheap tarmac thrills just to fit into a cultureless culture totally preoccupied with perceived penis enlargement. They just want to rip it - and not just for a lap at a time so brakes can be cooled down. So dear Honda, yes, you do meet the nicest people driving a Honda, just not the button-downed ones you still seem so determined to impress. After a decade of abandonment now, we hope you've found your way again and learned that the point of producing a halo car every year is really about developing and maintaining halo enthusiasts, because only they can nurse and shepherd an inanimate object into full legendary status.
I'm a performance nut and I think the hatch will do better in SCCA. I already built my ex to run track next is my hatch to get track ready. Coming from rwd mk3 to em1 DD and I'm not hating life like I thought I would be.
+Honda Street Garage thought it was just J swap NA but turbo too review everything i own a 07 EXL sedan accord 6mt very rare im sub and waiting on the turbo review touch everything tunning management etc.
+Edwin Sanchez that's what we're waiting on is the engine management and dyno tune. You can't just run Hondata it takes a full AEM setup. Not exactly an everyday setup! Lol
@HondaStreetGarage I’m trying to see your wheels on the white 2 door civic I believe I have the same I haven’t mounted them on my civic yet being that I’m getting it ready for paint do you mind posting a still picture of that car ?

Hi Guys great job love the channel ! Can you guys feature the Da in a video cuz I want to see what he has cuz I have 92 da thanks , oh are you guys a shop ? Or it's for your personal use only ?
My CB7 will probably never be car show material since I work out of it and I live in a place where people can't drive. Always finding dents and scratches in parking lots that wasn't there before.
id really like to see more in depth video on the red honda hatch that has the v6 turbo with right hand drive. you didnt show much of it & i thought it was the most interesting car there.
Trust me your opinion is the same with everyone else's!! Lol there is a long awaited video being put together from when the car was first getting put together we're just waiting to finish it on the Dyno before we post videos of it. It's coming soon!
