North America never got the D13. Japan, Australia and UK/Europe did.

You should see mine. Godamn discrace, it's so hard to keeep them clean around here (I don't live in California) and where it rains frequently (think: Scotland) it's tough to keep a clean car or let alone the engine bay.

I will never understand the Honda scene's fascination with red wheels.

So ugly.

What color blue is that? Maybe it just looks weird because of the flash, but it looks really vibrant.
