    HONDA EDITION

Transcript

Is what your car says about you, Honda edition. If you drive a sixth gen Civic hatch, you've owned it since community college, and it's appreciated faster than your degree. Another one for the sixth gen hatch, guys. Quit trying to up badge it to an e k nine type r rank sell it to some kid that doesn't know the difference. If you drive a Honda Fit, how does it feel to be the king of the road? If you drive a first gen Insight, you found the weirdest car that nobody really wanted and you've become insufferable about the aluminum chassis and fuel economy. If you drive a first or second gen CR V, turning off your AC feels like a 100 shot of nitrous, and those tables in the trunk have become your entire personality. Comment what car you drive below.
