Del Sol looks like an ugly frog.

Yes it does...and my '91 Prelude looks like a wedge of bright red cheese with some dents in it...still kicks ass though! Stock form the Prelude takes the cake in the 3rd gen area...4WS version with variable runner intake manifold.

There is that, but my big one is that it seats more than 2 people.

Call me a sports car purist, but I when I commune at speeds and pulling g's in turns, I want to share it with only one friend, or keep the experience to myself. The extra people in the back throw off the weight balance fore and aft. Not to mention that when I really fly, I can only deal with one person screaming in terror at once (I am usually the one screaming "Banzai!" a Correllian War Cry, or the action quote of the day.) :)

If it seats more than three (in deference to the Vector W-2 that seated three across,) it is a sports sedan, not a sports car.

...

Did I fail to mention I am a bit of an adrenaline junkie?

Anyway, as for fuel economy, now that the ports to the side housing with the RENESIS engine, it has gone up, and they still tune them. Though in my FD with the REW and rotor housing exhaust, I was able to pull anywhere from 27-30mpg hwy, even with a little "spirited" driving. City always stunk at 13.

Dude everything you just said in your first paragraph is exactly what I would have said LOL
