jason_ding Posted April 20, 2001 Report Share Posted April 20, 2001 I noticed that among young people, a lot of them are faithful to one of these two makes. Which one are you? I'm personally a VW guy. I'm not sure if they are as good as Hondas technically, but I love the fact that their cars still have personality in a world of same-old same-old.

I Burn Rice Posted April 20, 2001 Report Share Posted April 20, 2001 Im a Honda guy because well I drive a Honda. I like the small high revving engines and I like the preciseness of the cars. I think I became a Honda guy because of my surroundings. Nearly every one of my friends drives/is into Hondas so I naturally became that way. Although I really like VWs too.

RuchG Posted April 20, 2001 Report Share Posted April 20, 2001 Personally I love older VW's much better than the Honda's of their day. Like the Mk.I and Mk.II Golf's. I especially loved the Mk.II Golf GTi 16v. But nowadays the torch has been passed on as Honda's have evolved well, and VW's have gotten sloppy. They are now being driven around by fashion conscience(sp?) people, especially teenage to early 20's girls. But I also think that if the new Civic is a sign of things to come then Honda could be getting sloppy, too...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C-MURDER Posted April 20, 2001 Report Share Posted April 20, 2001 Ding drives a newer VW....LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 20, 2001 Report Share Posted April 20, 2001 I'm also a VW guy...I grew up in Golfs, so it's not really suprising But, I'm not one of those die-hard Honda-bashing VW fans. I realize that a lot of Honda's cars are better than VW's, and that's ok with me. I just prefer VW's style more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mata Posted April 20, 2001 Report Share Posted April 20, 2001 i`ve been a vw guy since i was like 14, when a firend of mine got a 69 bug from his dad, then at 15 i got my first car which was an 87 jetta, at the same time, one of my best friends got his first car which is a scirocco. then i left vw`s, but my friend got a newer scirocco, and nowadays drives a corrado. some of my friends cars are. 1.- corrado g60 2.-69 bug 3.-91 jetta 4.-98 jetta 2.0 5.-94 golf 2.0 6.-87 jetta 7.-00 jetta 2.0 and none of my friends dive hondas so i would say I am a vw guy all the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikAnchovy Posted April 20, 2001 Report Share Posted April 20, 2001 I really like both... although deep down, I'm more of a Honda guy . But I did get a drive in my aunt's '98 Golf CL, and I was most favourably impressed... Now, if only Hondas were as individualistic and stylish as VWs, like they were (IMO) from the mid-'80s to the early '90s... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PontiacGP Posted April 20, 2001 Report Share Posted April 20, 2001 I'd take a VW over a honda as long as it isn't a rabbit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris V. Posted April 20, 2001 Report Share Posted April 20, 2001 Rabbits can be quite cool. They are still popular road race cars (the '77s are favorites for being the lightest FI versions), and are still popular with sports sedan enthusiasts worldwide, especially in GTi form: http://www.vwvortex.com/resources/gallery/...s/large2/81.jpg http://www.vwvortex.com/resources/gallery/...s/large2/84.jpg http://www.vwvortex.com/resources/gallery/...s/large2/78.jpg http://www.vwvortex.com/resources/gallery/.../large2/147.jpg With a later 16V or 1.8T, they can be very rapid for very little money.

Guest Posted April 20, 2001 Report Share Posted April 20, 2001 I would much rather have a VW over a honda any day. Although i would much rather have a saab or a caddy over them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Napkintosh Posted April 20, 2001 Report Share Posted April 20, 2001 VW. The VR6 has always been a pretty attractive model for me, whether it's the GTI, Jetta, or Passat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
