spastic colon, If I were you I'd stay away from these crap boxes... Go with a 06 MT/NAVI TSX in NHB

there is so much aftermarket support out there for the TSX it's close to or going to pass the amount for the R.

And the great thing, The chances of the TSX getting stolen is %.01 compared to the R.

BTW you owe me a phone call.

NP mang. If I had the money right now I'd be all over that car. For me it's either get a black one with JDM Metal front or a virgin 97 from an original owner.

I've been working out Opie. I'm almost big enough to go hand to hand combat with you.

Now that sounds like a challenge. That security guard looked awefully scared in that one pic floating around and Len I think he's about your size.

I would say don't do it.

After seeing your purchase history over the last couple of years, I don't think an ITR will be right for you. You bought a 600RR and then sold it...I am assuming because you recovered your senses and realized you weren't ready to be riding a $9K deathtrap.

Then you bought a big, fancy M3. It looks like you buy the fastest and most exclusive rides that you are able to afford at the time. Hence, an ITR is going to feel like a downgrade to you, unless you have a bunch of other cars. It's certainly going to be less of everything than your M3, so I think you'd be tempted to sink a ton of money into it to make it fast. Insurance isn't cheap, and didn't you have an ITR stolen from your house a couple of years ago?

if I were in your shoes, I'd get an Si bus and slap a DC5R head on it, and call it a day. Or an SRT-4 or Mustang GT or WRX (all used of course), something that will be fast and fun enough and not expensive. Save some money, make your house payments, and when you're ready, you can have a $60,000 DC2R like Ken as a weekend fun car, locked away in your shiny new garage with a few dogs guarding it.

Don't they are theft magnets, even though I would have initially bought that 97 that you had, if you would have drove it up here.
I bought a 95 supra tt for with 29k miles for a few more k than your intial 20k price target

Well what about a 2001 S4 for Len? (they go for about 20,000 +/- a few).
