    so... less training wheels, more "rider's ed"? do you have to have a bike license in japan? do they have to register bikes? hmm...

    also, are they going to allow open source programs to run on it? i could seriously go for some zombie-apocalypse biking games......

    Possibly the most fun looking thing Honda has come up with in awhile. Congrats, guys.

    Paperboy was one of the coolest arcade games of my teenage years.

    Never got particularly good at it, but still, it was fun.

    @that ain't the way to have fun, son: Atari really had it going on in the late '80s. I think they used the same technology for 720° and STUN Runner. Now, if Honda would build a STUN Runner simulator, I'd pay a dollar for that ride.

    Now if anyone, even just one, person at Chrysler had half a brain, they'd really grab this opportunity. Safety is important, and a fantastic selling point.

    This may be the one and only thing Dodge can shove into Toyota's face and actually have ground to stand on.

    Just a big FYI
    The IIHS does not test Porsches. It does not test many of the most expensive BMWs and Mercedes either. Therefore their absence should not make a big difference.

    The IIHS told us they tested only 52 roofs at this point. Why? Because when they told manufacturers of the tests and asked them to send cars they thought had a chance of passing, all they got was 52. of those 27 passed. They will add new models to the list throughout the year though as they do more testing. That's why so many 2010 models were rushed through the old testing to get 2009 awards.

    Single most important safety feature: an alert driver. Everything else is bandaids to minimize the consequences of the driver's failure, both of this vehicle and of those around him.

    I guess it would be best to drive in overstuffed furniture. That would, you know, cushion any impacts.

    What's amazing is seeing one of these compared to a current-gen Civic.

    This is a proper small car. The current Civic is larger than the first, and probably second, generation Accords. #1978

    @that ain't the way to have fun, son:
    no kidding. I recently parked my '85 CRX Si next to a newish Civic Si, and the difference in bulk is striking.
    2 feet longer and almost 1000lb heavier to accomplish the same task of carrying 4 people (in the Gen 1 hatch version) and providing a smart, fun drive ? Honda, really?
    I guess the Fit is left to carry Soichorio's torch

    The sheetmetal looks showroom fresh. I was surfing for one of these for a daily driver a few months back. But then I decided to get a Karmann Ghia instead. ;-) #1978
