3 pictures to be exact as my camera has died so had to use my N95, picked it up 2 days ago and all ready done 200 miles, is really nice to drive once your used to it, certainly a drivers car and goes sideways quite well too

Anyway, Plans are to get some coilovers for it, rear diffuser, Exhaust, AEM Replica and maybe change the wheels to rota Torques 17x8.0's.

Nice


Red leather too


Wheel change and lower and these always look spot on. Went to a honda meet a little while back and there was a gorgous black one on gun metal rotas

Drives supercharged Tec with torque

that's cause its in a differnt league to a rx8, pure drivers car, close ration gearbox, one of the best NA engines in the world.

It does step out a little but you know when its going too so its alright.

I paid under 10k for this one with 50k on the clock.

Ah right I thought you were younger. A guy I run into work with was considering getting one but is now thinking 350z instead, hes 21 aswell & the Honda was a good bit more for him to insure.

Prices have dropped a lot in the last 9 months - I was looking last July and you'd be lucky to get anything with less than 50k on it for under 10k - certainly not nearly as new as a 53 plate.

Ace car though - bet insurance isn't cheap though?

Nice. I like the little rear spoiler!

The wheels look a bit lost though, definately change them! Mind you lowering it could make the difference.

Whats the seats like inside? Look quite nice from what I can see on those photos
