Default dont know if i made the right choice....

Hi I'm new here but not to the Honda game, I recently sold my cw R and got a Noble M400 twin turbo with only 196 miles!! I have always had Hondas since i was 17 and for some reason i feel as if i made a mistake in selling the R. I have had the R for 2 years and it has always been my dream car but i got a good deal on this car that i couldn't pass up. Do you guys think i made the right choice?? Thanks

i dont have any pics of the R because i was never an internet kinda guy so what do i need pics for if i never posted them i regret it now because i would have loved to show you my beautiful R

and to all the people telling me that i should have kept both and calling BS...I wish...its kind of hard when you have 9 cars not being driven and I sold the R because some random guy came up to me and offered me 21k for it so to me it was a darn good deal!!

Here are some pics

Terrible choice, sell that thing and buy another R.

No, it's hard for us to tell what your personal preference is, only YOU know what you like better.

What'd you pay for it anyway?

I would assume that if you can afford an 85K car such as that, then you can afford another cheap car in the form of an ITR if you really wanted one.

This is the ITR forum. You can't post pics of some other car without pics of the ITR

My R is going to my grave with me. The guy is an NSX owner, and told me he was a huge fan of the Type R for about 10 years, so I took him for a little drive, of course it was a lot faster then his NSX and the guy almost ripped my Oh **** Bar off and had the palest face I've ever seen. We got back, he got out and did some stretches (LOL) and offered me that, I just kind of chuckled.

His NSX was fitted with quite a few NSX-R goodies too, pretty nice.

I love that car man. I got to go for a ride at a Panana City car show.

30K for your R... - I would have tied a bow around it right there and then

I want to call BS on this. If you can afford to throw down 85K for a exotic, why are you wasting time on H-T asking us our opinions (in the R forum no less)? You should have enough cash to buy another R, if not two.

And I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt.

You should had kept the R and have the Noble at the same time.

It is the right choice? Well try out the Koenigsegg CCR...

I personally love the Nobles! They are awsome cars besides the fact that the engine is from a ford mondeo. None the less the waste gate makes that awsome woosh noise.lol. I had and internship back in GB a couple years back and got the chance to see one then. They are a beauty. Ill stick with my R though.
