What does the car have to do with it? I mean, it's safety rating must have been through the roof, and as a parent, safety rating would be my top oriority.

different types of cars cause certain kinds of people to drive like dipshits.

this is why sports cars are more expensive for insurance—there is research upon research upon research which shows plain as day that teenagers and sport cars are in waaaay more accidents than teenagers in a regular car.

Funnily enough, unless it's a Corvette. So many older folks buy them to drive them to the golf course and back once per week that it keeps the rates down.

A parent with safety in mind gets their kid a slow Volvo, not a 600 horsepower super sedan.

Because nobody feels cool racing in a Honda.

I'm as far as you can get from a Honda fan but claiming no one likes racing them is a laughable statement to make

I didn’t say nobody likes racing them. Nobody feels cool in them cause they’re cheap ugly cars.

There’s a reason why when news articles like this come out, it was a “fancy” car racing. Not a Honda killing several people.

I definitely drive my Mustang wayyyyy different than I drove my Versa or Fusion.

No Camaro ever pulled up next to me and challenge me in a race in my Versa or Fusion.

Never heard of the Honda Versa or Fusion. Weird.

Point is those slow family cars aren’t interesting to race with.

Lol yes they are. Are you a drag race fan? That would explain the lack of fun you’re having.

How often do they do it in public roads when it’s busy? Hardly. I don’t think I’ve ever seen 2 Hondas race in front of me. But with my Mustang, I’ve had Camaros and other fast cars try to race me. Never a Honda.
