Default Said goodbye to a great car...

....but hope to see her soon.

Bought the car a few years back like this as a beater to replace a 1998 Honda CRV 5spd (that I loved as well...just didn't realize it until I got rid of her too):

Turbo B18 LS motor with JDM front:


Didn't care for the turbo, so decided to lose the turbo...then the LS motor in favor for an ITR motor. Couldn't find a CLEAN type R motor for a decent price, so I bought a wrecked RSX-S and borrowed the motor:



For a beater, the performance didn't match how the car looked. Decided on a paint swap:



Weekend car has a few goodies on it, so I decided to do up the DD to match the weekend car:

weekend car:


done up daily driver:

Then decided to part her and polish/wax her for the new buyer:











Did the paperwork, got the money and buyer got in the car:



Pulled out of my driveway:



Drove off:



.....luckily, he lives next door and I will be seeing her soon and often. She may even let me get my hands up her skirt so that I can get her dirt under my fingernails for reliving the good old days.

Still have the weekend car (I'm going to be buried with it):







Also, since the wife is going to be getting a new (or newish SUV), I plan to take her daily driver:







...and hope to turn it into something like this (already have the wheels and the suspension setup waiting to be installed):
