i do actually own a camaro, but its a V6 and i know its slow. its reliable and good on gas- when i want to go fast, i'll take the bike.

the difference between the GSXR sticker and VTEC is my bike is fast and has ties to racing, whereas VTEC is about fuel efficiency and emissions out of puny little engines

Honda's are not fast, stop pretending they are
My Prelude didn't do too bad. Though I'd love an explanation for this comment...
