Personally, I loved how the Civic SI had so much less HP than the GMC Sonoma, doesnt matter about the other crap
 
1.6 liter engine putting out 138 HP stock, and a 4.3Litler outting out 177 stock, hmm,

the Honda engine is about a third the size of the Chevy engine.

Seems the power to wieght ratio favors the Honda, even on the giggle gas. as does the power to displacement.

Oh, quit with the HP/liter thing, thats only important if the liters are equal. Power to weight matters, but I think the thing to note is that boy racers drive Civics with less power than Grandpa's in Sonomas.

Thats what I was getting at.

On top of that, that Sonoma is a Regular Cab. I believe its a short bed too, meaning its Curb weight is around 2600 LB

an 05 SI has a curb weight of 2744 :fuck-you:
 
You boys missed the most improtant part of that whole GM vs an import thing. Reliablility and parts quality. Honda has both, GM neither.

I'm gonna get me one of them leaf blowers and plug it into my power inverter. YEEEEHAAAA! :lol:
