uhh...

I guess he has more motor building experience than Honda, please listen to him. He must have learned from books that all pistons rings are perfectly seated when they have 0 miles on them. Heck.... the first way to warm up the car on a cold day is to redline it till it's warm.

no excuses here, just more practical and you can't find a 2 door here at all.

Yes, this is my first new new car. I also own a Honda Pilot with DVD and 2005 Honda CBR 600rr, bought new. I had an RL before this and traded it in for the SI. Gas on that Pig was really bad. Great car though.
