Yeah...I've gone to the dark side. No, not Nissan, I'm not that cool Yes...I bought a hon-duh
But in my defense it's probably the only Honda I'd ever own (except maybe an NSX). In my eyes, it's just like a modern-day RX-7---more so than the RX-8, although the two cars are very similar, even using the same gearbox, believe it or not. Driving it just doesn't get old...instant steering and throttle response, thing revs like a motorcycle. Plus it gets 30 MPG, which is one of the main reasons I decided on this over an 8.
I do still have my FD, but I don't know what I'm doing with it. I'll probably still sell it once I get the title issues figured out. If I do, I'm planning on buying an FC
Traitor
Purrty. Also the only Honda besides an NSX that I'd own.

Haha! I don't really have title issues with the FD, I just need to find a way to get a VIN verification done, because the title came from out of state. But I can't drive it, so I can't take it to get the inspection done. Sort of a catch 22 there. I'll have to tow it or something. I really want to keep it, but I'm in a rough spot financially so I don't think I can afford to. It's not like it's going to go up in value either...
Thanks for the compliments guys! Only plans right now are to lower it, get wheels, and basic power adders (probably headers and exhaust).
Yeah, apparently if you keep it in VTEC (i.e. on track) it gets AWFUL gas mileage, haha. But on the street, there's absolutely no need to even be in VTEC, I only do it occasionally on highway onramps or something if I want to
Oh and I'm sure this won't be anywhere near the amount of trouble the FD has been...haha...these are incredibly reliable.

If I could fit in an S2K, I would totally have one. Being 6'7" can have its drawbacks....I have no clue how I fit in the FD haha.
Oh, btw, the S2000 does NOT have the same gearbox as the RX8. This was a big debate for a while, but was put to bed a while ago. Both are manufactured by Aisin, and are very similar, but they are not the same. Just thought you should know

Just kidding... don't hit me.
Lol my fist is probably bigger than your foot! Remember that! Lol
It's sometimes difficult to get around...I haven't slept with my legs straight in a bed for a while, and I've hit my head on a lot of crap.
