Default Finally got a home for the R with pixors

Recently relocated with the R because of employment. Rented for 6 months and thankfully nothing happened to the R. Now the fiance (Colette) and I are into our new house and loving it. The only downside is that I got us into such a quality home I don't think the R is going to be able to stay with us. Colette is in grad school right now and i'm thinking about taking classes online to get my MBA which should look good with an Engineering degree. Once we're done with school i'll be back and thats a promise. I'm gonna look for a track/project car until I can return to the R family. It has been a pleasure meeting those I have met in the R community. Check back for 'For Sale' URL or PM for details.

Car is:
Clean @ss 97R
Clean title
63k miles
All stock except for the Expo stickers '04' they add 5whp/sticker
http://hondamarketplace.com/zerothread?id=1509430








WTDR Expo


Meet with some other R owners

Josh is a great guy, and the car really is immaculate.

Congrats on the home Josh.

Josh's 97 is minty fo' sho'!! It's a shame you've got to let it go but you've got to set realistic priorities. As long as j00 plan to be back, I guess I'll let it slide.

Josh is just a sell out.

Wish you could hold onto it for a bit longer, so I could pick this thing up and make her a garage *****.

If I had an extra 17k laying around I'd help you out. 97's are the rarest of rare.

Good Luck

It's been good talking to you lately and congrats on the new home! It's really sad to see this finally happen, but we'll for sure keep in touch. Next time your up in town or even at expo, we can finally meet up. I know this car meant a lot to you, but like I said before, it's for the best.

education, fiance, and new home &gt; tha ARRRR
