Nothing to do with lineups and nameplates this time. We ARE in a mini recession. Retail sucks everywhere. Of my 26 advertising clients, only a handful had decent months and their products are all different.

Really, he ONLY good thing Honda has done since like 98 is the S2000 and now the RL. They havent done anything to improve thier cars in years. In the mid 90's they dominated.. but havnt done crap since.. if not made the cars worse.

Have you heard of the TSX? That car is probably one of the best cars, period, ever built by Honda. Relatively peppy, excellent handling, great interior, lots of standard equipment, and relatively inexpensive.

The RSX is certainly a better machine (in general) than the Integra, unless you're comparing to the Type-R. The Type-S isn't nearly as hardcore as the Type-R, but it's certainly better than the GS-R.
