[QUOTE="lightningfield, post: 3535366, member: 7981"] I have been using this for 3 months now and this is my personal verdict: [B][U]Pros[/U][/B] - Handling is bloody nice...proabably due to the rigid chassis and hardened shocks. - Power to weight ratio is equal. - Gear ratios are very optimised for any kind of driving style. - K20A ivtec is the new thang. Lets move on before a-vtec storm the world. - Chicks dig this kinda car. - A 'basic' and fun car with less electronics for you to deal. Pure control is in your hands. - Maintenance is pretty much the same like other normal cars. No extra oil for your rear differential tho. - The car will look handsome if you put on a GT-wing. - The Brembos + ABS will not make you wet your pants during emergency braking. - Lotssssssssss of stuffs available on the market for the DC5. [B][U]Cons[/U][/B] - Handling is quite hard to tune, if you wanna go hardcore. - K20A is N/A. It aint easy to extract power from N/A. You gotta spend more. Or go K24. More cubic inches = more power. - Chicks dont dig sitting in a car at 240kmh while you're laughing crazily. - Dashboard is kinda high. You cant go damn low on your full bucket seats or you will scrape the curb. - Fuel consumption is quite high if you're on vtec mode all the time (happened to me) - K20A ivtec is very agressive. but not the sound tho. B-series Type-R barks vtec way louder. - You wont feel content after owning this car. The urge for mods will always be in your mind every 5 mins. I hate this feeling. really. [/QUOTE]
