I'll be sure to idle my car a few minutes after driving, you know... for the sake of the intercooler.

Other than the intercooler comment, whats way off about this? Its the messiah, the sport was shorter and had much more power, and Rohrl was great in one on snow. Its a momentum car, as a stock one is not much more powerful than a current base Civic. I agree that a sorted car shouldnt have "quirks" like tempermental windows...
Clean looking car that needs to spend some time with Hank to catch up to more modern cars on the straight parts of the road.

Doesn't seem to know about the a2, only mentions the s1 which is a totally different car...also calling an ur a super car is sort of outlandish.

He needs to learn to stay in his own lane, I have no issue with "spirited driving". My issue becomes when you take the "racing line" through corners and there's a good chance of on coming traffic. If you can't stay in your lane because of your speed you need to slow down. I'll get down off my soap box now.

He makes a lot of claims about HIS cars origininality that are not true... too bad he doesn't know his own car as he should.
Typical of a collector who has a diverse collection, not that much of an enthusiast of a specific marque.
- Car is a 1983 US and as such never came with the following:
- 8" ronals
- Black tail lights
- Euro front bumper
- H4/H1s
- New style dash (but old style door pockets, center console, gloveboxes and wiper/turn signal stalks).
- Euro trunk reflector (but US trim pieces which do not match, you can see a gap).
Hope this helps.
Cheers
