Nissan added a new special edition version of the Cube to its lineup on May 27. The Cube Plus Navi HDD Special Edition comes with a touch-panel GPS navigation system that can also play DVD videos, an iPod jack, and a back view monitor to help you drive like a madman in reverse. Or park. (more…)
Honda Japan does a lot for its customers in Japan, not the least of which is the Sports Car Driving Meet. It’s basically a performance driving school for owners of the Civic Type R, Integra Type R, Accord/Torneo Euro R and S2000. At ¥37,800 for the one-day course and ¥68,250 for the two-day course, the cost is more than reasonable. Can you imagine tearing down the legendary Twin Ring Motegi or Suzuka Circuit in your own car with a professional instructor at your side?
R car owners have their choice of Twin Ring Motegi on August 16 or Suzuka on October 13 for the one-day and Motegi on November 30 to December 1 for the two-day. Being a more hard-core bunch, S2000 owners have no choice but to sign up for two-day classes on November 16-17 at Motegi or November 23-24 at Suzuka.
I cannot begin to describe how badly I wish Honda would do this in the US. Sigh… looks like I’ll have to settle for .
