Honda owners hate 86/FRS?

have anyone of y'all been over to that the temple of vtec forum? there sure is alot of hate towards Toyota in general.

they're saying the twins are selling bad because its ugly, underpower, and over priced. (guess they haven't taken a good look at the Si and CR-Z lately).

they're also calling the Lexus line up and FT1 ugly. that Toyota is trying too hard. (guess they haven't been to an Acura dealer lately).

A lot of people are going to hate. This car isn't for everyone just let them say what they want to, truth is they will never be able to do what we can on the track with their Si because as much power as they can give it, it is still a FWD car and will never be as capable as the 86.

Guys, we don't need to make hate "some brand" thread. We don't need to follow those hate thread from other forum.

Don't need to hate, just respect

I don't need the approval of others to own the car I want to drive.

Meh don't let them get to you. Fanboys of all types hate anything that they aren't fans of. I'm sure you'll see this in other forums. If you want to feel better, now that I've sold my Impreza, I'm now driving a Honda Civic while I wait for my FRS to even get an arrival date...and this Civic is a dreadful car to drive...its not even reliable...lots wrong with it.

Who gives a shit what Honda owners think. Have they taken a look at what Honda/Acura has to offer in terms of a new "sporty" car? Not a damn thing.

No we (Honda owner here) aren't more than usual?

I like how you're accusing them of hate, when the same thing is happening over on this forum. You're guilty of the same thing.

It's just a little bit of brand rivalry.

Typical fan-forum behavior. Most of them are probably just bitter that there's another popular tuner car out there that potentially looks sexier and drives better than theirs (S2000 owners excluded). So they resort to a circle-jerk of smack-talking in order to validate their own riced out FWD shitboxes (see what I did there?).

There are dumb fanboys of every manufacturer and this niche market car isn't going to appeal to everyone.

Who cares?

There are tons of examples of the same trash on this forum (and I'm not including the purposely written examples in this thread).
