i'd like one, but dont really have space for one, or a need :/
Fee was telling me about a guy that had one on our trackday on sat.
he crashed it, beached it on top of a tyre wall, ripped the rear bumper off, ripped two tires off etc.
HERO
He was back on track later!

I love them. Blue one like that in my town. White or black has to be the colour to have.
Shame insurance is bit of a wanker - I take it that it's due to be an import?

same engine as a JDM EP3 civic (K20 series), not the S2000 (F20 series), it is 220bhp though as colin said. i think in general they share alot with the EP3, but don't quote me on that.
i prefer the pre-facelifts, which bodes well as they're the cheaper ones love them in white but you could say i'm biased.
get one

Im always a bit weary of imports, not sure why. Think ive always got at the back of my mind that its going to have been crashed/stolen at some point!! Also most are 2002-03 cars with 20k miles, do japs pay Łk's for cars & leave them at home most the time 
Not sure id buy an import!!

aye colin, was reading this recently on an integra forum, the case was this subaru, supposedly the same car, being sold here with 38,500 miles when it was supposedly sold in japan with 111,000kms which is 68,000-ish miles.

Me and Jonny_SRi went to test drive one few months back!
Fairly quick once moving but didn't interest either of us in the sligtest tbh.
Having to really thrash the thing to get any decent performace wasn't up my street!
Also felt really cheap (very Jap) inside
They are one of the best looking Honda's by far in white but I wouldn't have one personally

the general impression i got from reading upon them is they are more refined than the dc2, larger, heavier and quicker in the real world.
they also sound awsome, even being driven 'normally' one that passed me in traffic sounded very nice and if i had my eyes closed at that moment i would never of guessed it was a honda that passed( im guessing it had an aftermarket exhaust)

gorgeous cars been in a few of my mates dc2s and the handleing is outstanding.
i would love a dc5 but i cant insure a skoda fabia vrs so the likes of me owning 1 of these are very slim
