‘That’s’ my loaner?

Just a quick post for now; while I promised an upcoming review of the new Honda Insight I was supposed to receive as a loaner car, I’ve been given a 2003 Honda ‘That’s’ in it’s place. Not entirely the substitution I was looking for, but it will give me a chance to make some pretty interesting comparisons between a very traditional architecture and a very modern one, the old turbocharged E07Z four valve engine and the new P07A two valve iDSI engine and some other changes. Initial impressions: the JC life has a much more sophisticated interior, smoother ride but feels, overall, less like a car if that makes any sense, while the That’s reminds me of my old Integra. Let’s see how it pans out over a week, with a full write-up to follow.
