    Does the blond come w/ the cappuccino?

    Actually, based on my past experiance w/ Suzuki & Honda products, I'd go w/ the Honda.

    The both look like fun.

    Werd I think I would go with the suzuki Since it is already turboed and the aftermarket resorces are greater with it. BTW the cost to import yes is high but that is what i so so it would be no diffrent than one of my skylines
