I've been a honda fan since i was 16, but i've read alot of good reviews on this car. I think motortrend rated it the best handling Front wheel drive car ever tested! Anyone driven one? Thoughts...opinions???
I've got the shows....now i need the goes.

I've looked one over and sat in it before. I really think its quite possibly the perfect resonably priced daily driver. Its definately quick with a lot of potential, phenomenal handling (quoted as the new benchmark for FWD handling), sounds amazing, looks amazing, interior is excellent with gripping buckets, and an awesome 450 watt sterio with an aftermarket face, speakers and a CD changer too in the back if I remember correctly. All for under 20K, I think its a steal.

Well I posted the question because this spring i'm going to get a new car. Right now i'm pretty set on getting a MSP. I wish it had more power, but i guess it wouldn't be hard to find more power in that set up. I think that a FMIC, and a boost controller would enable you to boost 9-10 PSI with no problem, instead of the stock 6.5 psi. Any ideas on how much of a HP gain I could get from those mods?
