I think there may be a slight speed differential between a NASCAR and a Honda.

but when you cmpare the pics, the ferrari seems to have torn apart where subframes woulda been bolted/welded etc, wheras the honda has torn apart at the sheetmetal...and the ferrari was PROBABLY going a little faster. ...ok so i'm not much of an expert!

but then again i'm with you. I'd be surprised if honda would let that kinda low quality creep in...unless maybe there's a non-export version?

iv seen alot of crashes some pretty mangled, yet in none of those accidents have the metal torn like AL foil as bad as that honda so i would say it has been made cheaply and very dodgey..
