Finally got my R replacement

Sup guys... sold my R after much debating last July, but for me, it was time for it to go. I loved the car to death, but the day to day hassles finally got the best of me. Sad thing is I prepped it back to mint condition, only to sell it to a 18 year old who totalled the thing 2 weeks later

Anyway here's what i ordered last september and finally showed up saturday:

Brand new 05 Track model with new 300hp engine

I only have 200 miles on it so far and havent gone above 5k (7k redline) but being a 4-banger honda driver my whole life, holy torque! hehe Handling/Braking is awesome and the smooth powerband is fantastic. Pulls nicely from all rpm's. Luckily my pops has an S2K, so i can always jump back into my honda roots.
