It’s a shame they didn’t put that time and effort into the transmission.

You're thinking of a different Accord. But I agree.

Depends on the health of the driver. Heart attacks can happen at any time.

Hell, you can buy a 2006 GALLARDO with 3-4k miles for about $110,000.


They are not that Expensive


and if you're tracking your car, then you're fully aware of all of the possible consequences, i.e. wrecking, getting killed, thus losing tons of $$$.
The accord is free, just sayin.

That's true. I was thinking more track condition related deaths.

Yeah, but Gallardos are not that expensive at all, only $110,000. Fuck, I need to get me one and track it.

Good call. All legit race teams have backup cars. You can't be a legit racer in bullshit cars like Accords.

sell the accord and buy my miata, it's a tune and new brakes away from a really good track car.

but honestly, if you're just trying to have fun it doesn't really matter what platform you're driving. buy anything honda would be much cheaper.
