So what you said is than an expert driver in a base can beat a non-expert driver in an S. Agin, it proves nothing except that the advantage of the s isn't enough to outweigh the driver's...

Actually, the RSX Type-S 6-speed is a cable shifter, and had even tighter throws than the GS-Rs transmission. And 192 lb. ft. in the '01 Boxster in my case vs. 162 lb. ft in the S2000 isn't really...

Before I bought my '01 base Boxster, I drove a 6-speed Acura RSX and before that a 5-speed Acura Integra GS-R. I don't want to ruffle any feathers, but quite honestly the transmissions in those cars...

I was running Kumho Ecsta 712s on my RSX before I got my Boxster. I thought that they were grippy, reasonably quiet and pretty good in the rain, but there were definate quality issues. One tire had...

I don't bother with excuses any more. I just go out, start it up, and drive until I've got something else to do :)

That's a little before my time, although those black JPS cars were the glory days of Lotus in F1. The car I'm thinking of was in Yellow Camel livery. They also had Nelson Piquet driving for the for...

Chemical smell in front trunk?
