    Thank you for your opinion. I'm personally not a fan of buying built either. This is one of the first cars Eric has purchased or traded for that has been previously modded. (This is his 6th car this year) The "attention to detail" that I'm referring to lies in the "less is more" mentality. That credit goes to the previous owner. I can only believe that Eric will show the same attributes to this car and if he keeps it, I'm sure it has a LONG path ahead of it.

    lol you must really admire this guy. thats cool, but lets be serious. there really isnt that much that can be done to this car that hasnt already been done. the only thing i can think of is for him to throw a turbo or a supercharger in it. and then drop a lot of money into putting mugen goodies on it. but thats been done so many times its not even cool anymore. .i mean what else is there? the car is gorgeous as it sits

    Lol yes he is a good friend of mine and my neighbor. Between the two of us I think we have owned about 50 cars in the last 10 years. This one is definitely the nicest he has owned. I'm sure he can pm you a list of the modifications he plans on applying to the car. The only thing I "admire" about him is that he can own a Honda and not be a judgmental asshole. Seriously

    And Eric, I still admire you buddy... no homo

    Anyone who thinks a car is finished is obviously not a true car enthusiast. And yes I have lots of plans for this car to make this car my own. There are plenty of ways for me to still change up this car. The only thing I won't be touching on the car will be the interior. And by the way it's not admiration, it's just friendship. I'm not modding this car to be like anyone else or to impress the import community or to compete with anyone else, I build cars for me and me only. Yes the car is already modded, but is far from "built" as you say. If you would like to know what I plan to change up I'd be more than happy to fill you in, but again everything I do with my cars is for me and me alone. Love it or hate it, that's just how I am, and that's how's I'll always be....a true car enthusiast.

    i think you guys got me all wrong im not being a "judgmental asshole". And i wasnt doubting that you are a car enthusiast. Just from my experience of having the pleasure to own two different dc5's i mean to me there is nothing else you could do to that car. but thats just MY opinion, if you didnt want my opinion you wouldnt of posted pictures on an import forum. congrats again on the purchase and hope to see you at the next crsx meet!
