Oh yeah, there's one more thing - a small decal that reads, "DOHC VTEC." Really, it's just the letter "D" that's significant here. Not that VTEC, that masterful application of racing-inspired technology that Honda is famous for, isn't significant. It's just that this time VTEC is applied to a double-overhead-cam (hence the DOHC) engine to produce an incredible 160 horsepower and a mind-warping 8000-rpm redline.While this may not mean much to the average motorist, to those that comprehend the technological terms, it means that this is no run-of-the-mill four-banger. One run through the gears, taking it to redline each time, is exhilarating.
Teh old car.Hey look, a stock 99 Si.
