Well, it has come time to part ways with this amazing car. Since I've owned this car I have won almost every show attended including Motorsport Nationals, Elite Summer Nationals, ect. This is truely a one of a kind car that was built with quality and professionalism in mind.

All I can say is the car is perfect. It has been in 5 national magazines (HCI, Honda Turning, Car Audio, Import Tuner, and B Scene) and all full spreads. The car was also the 2005 NCCA Honda National Points Champion. This car is very well known and is an instant show winner.

Can everyone who has a negative comment just GTFO of this thread. No one asked for your opinions. He is selling a car, which FYI was the best showing Honda in the country when it was built, and still out-shows the majority of the cars in the scene today. I completely understand the majority of you might not like the style this car was built, but no one cares what you think. The work done on this car is flawless, the paint job still looks like it just came out of the booth, this car is as close to show perfection as a car can get. So please if you dont like it, keep the comments to yourself, this is a FS thread, not a place for opinions.

Good luck with the sale man, it was nice meeting you back at Elite Summer Nats this year :goodjob:

All these guys just have sand in their v-aginas because it's not flat black with steelies, cut springs, and an eBay "JDM" license plate zip tied to the front.

Props for a nice show car, and for it actually having something powerful under the hood!

I like this car, other then the a$$ end! everything looks like it was done right, and nothing was looked over! There is alot of haters on IA! Since i've been here ive seen alot of different kinds of people! Some hate the kitted out cars, some like the cars to look simple "lowered, wheels, jdm stuff". But then you have the group of people that like cars like these! I like a little of everything! kitted, stock, jdm cars, all that! but theres some i dont! Everyone has there own opinions! You could have the cleanest nicest car, but someone will find somthing they dont like about it! Thats just the way it is! OPINONS ARE LIKE A$$HOLES! EVERYONE HAS ONE!

Free bump! And i like the car overall! GLWS

I really like the IS headlights on that car. There are a couple things that I think were cut corners, but I will not mention those in the sale thread. Overall it is apparent that this car was thought out and not slapped together. I hope you weren't surprised to get all this negative response, it is IA. Best of Luck with the sale, its just not the right time in my life.

WTF?
11-29-2008, 02:58 PM
im not trying to be a jackass but this car is worthless unless someone is looking for nothing but a car to tralier to car shows if your going to invest 70K why not just buy a Z06, R35, Viper, M series BMW etc. something that looks good and you can dive daily at the same time

thats just my .02..:2cents:

half of the people calling this car rice is obviously noobs. This was one of the sickest civics in Ga for a long time. Been in import tuner, placed at every car show i saw it at. Its not "JDM" like all the nut swingers are all over now. This is a bad ass car. And the funny thing is, it would still prob out run half of the civics on this site also................
and to answer the question that brought this post back from the dead, i have no clue where this car is now. Last time i saw it was at the Atlanta Spring IA.

ive had it since around christmas. ive had to fix some stuff cause it sat a lot and the suspension and stereo needs to get tweaked a little, but other than that its bad ass. i really only drive it on my days off, and i dont dog it, but im not affaid to get on it. it is a car, whats the point of having it if your not going to DRIVE it. i plan on putting some better pistons, rods and camshafts, and possibly a small turbo with a fat ass front mount intercooler in it in the future. im hoping i can make it to tunerfest shootout and run it on the dyno just to see what it really puts out, but due to my recent issues with fixing shit on this car i dont want to unless i can trailer it out. i dont 100% trust it yet but im getting there. if i cant trailer it out im still gonna drive out but no dyno

Keep shit like this to yourself.
If you don't like a car, simply press the "back" button.
