Welcome to the board Adil J. If you're interested in having a Feature on the site, do let me know. I'd be glad to feature another good-looking Honda.

Ur right, Honda's are the future.....
But they wont be alone.

Alot of other car companies are really coming up. Take Hyundai for instance. Ppl. once thought of them as "cheaper" alternatives and they didnt have much "standing" with ppl. That was 5 yrs ago!
But look at them today...... They are considered to be as good as the japanese companies. in Dubai, and around the world (especially America where they offer some of the best Warranties) they offer some of the best value for money.

Look at VW now - have u seen the GTi adverts - they are trying to tapp the "tuner" market that Honda has led for many yrs.

Toyota too and Nissan - Tiida? -- all aimed at what Honda had for a long time.....
Not to mention the number of cars coming from the American Brands!

Honda will not be alone in the future...... !

Hyundai is doing pretty okay yeah ( http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/10791371/from/RL.1/ ) yet they still have the badge to come up for. It's like Skoda, even though they improved a lot:

it still holds the bad name a bit, and Hyundai has that problem as well. Some companies do fix their issues (look at nissan from 1999 to now) .. Some have to follow with that..

But to all of you, fear the Hyundai :)

Yea nice article Mikeh!
Says alot !

Do u knw Mercedes said the same thing bout Lexus.
When they were asked, they said they dont look at what BMW, Audi, Porsche, etc - But only at Lexus!

Lexus is what really scares them....!

A few years down the line, Honda and alot of companies could be saying the same about Hyundai :) - and i think they will....

Mitsubishi? - they are in trouble right now - their cars arent selling to well and they are losing billions! - thank God Mitsubishi Heavy Machinery and Mitsubishy Trucks are there to pool money in - otherwise they would be like Rover !

Yea but mitsubishi, in my opinion, has taken a wrong turn somewhere in the past - they only have a few models that they rely on.
(in Dubai its differnt - they sell everything well 0 especially the Magna - and it IS a good car!) - but worldwide their in trouble.

Their biggest mistake was entering into US and Canada - they arent making money!

I guess they took a wrong target. While Lancers are being sold pretty well, Evo's are a bit too much. Not everybody is gonna buy an evolution, since I guess, it has the boy-racing thing to it.

Magna's are good, but I don't think the world was ready for them yet.. if Mitsubishi can enter the saloon market. The nex eclipse and such, seem good.. but I don't know if the market is ready for it either. They should've kept the platform of the old one.. GSX - awd on a 4g63, now it's a 3.8L fwd car.. tsk tsk tsk :nono:
