And you immediately baby it home and go through everything and check things like boost levels and tuning, slowly. Doing something crooked like crimping off rear brake lines is totally different, but a lot of that stuff (bald tires, etc.) should be pretty obvious when looking at a car. Welcome to the world of cheap ass junk!

hahah...so true. And that is why there are MANY hondas on the street. My honda friends still ask me how my car runs...my answer: "reliable, no leaks, and good gas mileage!
." i got lucky on this one though.
