First car was a Jap car and was near enough indestructible, then ended up with a French car that annoyed the jobby out of me and cost a ton so I wanted to get something Jap again! Remembered my dad was gonna buy a 4G years and years ago so I started looking... first Prelude I even went to look at I ended up buying :lol:

Was 25, always loved crx's as they seemed so different. When I started looking at them, I discovered ludes and thought hmmmm better looking, faster, cheaper, sold! I'm now 35, lucky enough to have driven a lot of cars, thought about parting with it a few times but never have. Its just under my skin.
In fact, when you said in my thread that you'd have it, I nearly jokingly replied 10k and it yours.....then realised that i love it so much since I've had the work done at PAW, I wouldn't actually sell it for that. Seriously? !? I mean I surprised even myself :-/

I wouldn't pay 10k for it (with respect), but if I had it, I wouldn't sell it for a penny less mate. Your car is awesome

Thank you mate, I appreciate that 8-)
And I wasn't serious about the 10k :lol: but serious that I realised I wouldn't sell even for that, honestly surprised myself with that revelation :lol: !
