Dude.

1. You need to post a picture as requested in the red text at the top of the for sale forum **EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY** or this is getting locked by a mod.
2. A price would help you
3. Beautiful car, what a shame it's RHD.

Because this is the USA and we drive LHD cars. RHD is fun for a few days, maybe weeks but drive it long term and you'll find out.

Seriously what are you talking about? I was super nervous the first time I bought a RHD car. An hour later it felt perfectly natural. 2 weeks and I don't even notice the difference. Now I have 2. It's not confusing in the least. The only real issue I can say is a real thing is merging onto the highway. You really have to crank your head around to make sure it's clear. Wink mirror will solve this. Other then that maybe you mix the signals and the wipers up once in awhile. OK and once this happened. Got out of the GTR and into my solsitce. I went to shift with my left hand and punched the door. One time in 2 years. So yeah it's not an issue. One last thing. The drive thru. It's not real. Unless it's a big car it's easy to reach across at a drive thru.

So for anyone scared to drive a rhd car I was just like you. I thought it would be super confusing. I'm telling you it's not. It's way easier then you think.

I owned a rhd CRX many, many years ago. I didn't find it as enjoyable as you did. So for anyone thinking about buying one, see if you can try it out before making the purchase. I will never own another rhd car in the USA.

Reverse works as well. Good for a laugh when you see the reactions.

This isn't the place for this really but honestly I don't believe to ever owned a rhd car. You are ripping on it but not giving any reason other then "You'll find out." That's not an answer. Makes no sense. I'm calling shenanigans.

HAHA Yeah I've heard of people doing that. Never done it myself and probably never will. Knowing my luck I would scratch my car.

If all you drive is a rhd car all the time, it might become natural, but I have several cars and whenever I drove the RHD CRX I miss shifted constantly. It got to the point I thought twice before I drove that car and worrying about getting the gears right. Making left hand turns from the center lane requires a clear road in front of you. The road I used to live on was busy and cars were turning left and right all the time. Often I had to wait for the car in front of me to turn so I could see the road from the passenger side. I know this might sound pity, but for someone shelling out 15K it would be wise to find out if you will like the RHD experience. It's not for everybody out there, I might be in the minority here.

Sorry, no. I was once offered $500 for them, but turned down that offer as well. You can find some on eBay for around $300.

I raced my brothers turbo LHD crx and my RHD sir-s at a compact shootout years ago. Id literally hop right out of one and back in the lanes in another. Won one class and runner up in the RHD. I've known many to own and race RHD cars with no missed shifts either. I daily drove mine and including drive thru's I had zero issues. All the issues you speak of are petty and don't exist. If they were real issues none of us would ever get our mail.
