    meanwhile on an open mountain road on a Sunday afternoon

    “Woooooo!!!”

    Where you’re driving is as important as what. You’d love to drive a Civic Type R.

    In a hospital? Maybe not.

      Nah, FL5 Type 5 has hill assist, rev match, anti stall, and brake lock. With really comfy bucket seats. At speed you got Honda’s removedin adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assist. It’s as comfortable as a manual car can be for commuting and traffic. 10/10 would recommend as daily driver.

      The fact that it needs to be open means 99% of people can’t be there, which includes 98% of 500 HP car owners.

          You’re missing the point. 98% of drivers drive cars they don’t need and never experience fully. If driving on an open road on a sunny Sunday afternoon was the average motivation for such a car they’d all be stuck in traffic.

          It’s the same argument behind pickups, really.
