Pretty much just planning to keep it stock - only consideration would be the right lip kit if one came up, but aside from that stock. And yes - the SH-AWD is amazing fun, you can even get tail happy with it :D

Your new macchina is molto bella. :10: She's got a quietly menacing look, hasn't she? Very nice, Graham. Very nice indeed.

This was my extreme way to deal with the Volvo's oil leak, just buy a new motor! (Not really :lol: )

Thanks for the kind words - it's a special beast for sure. They basically did with this what they used to do with the Prelude. Anything the Honda engineers could come up with is fitted to this car!

From that period of time when Honda let its engineers do what they did best. ;)

I still remember a while ago when I took my Lude to a main Honda Agent to have a cambelt change a guy who had worked there as a salesman for nearly 40 years said He loved my Lude and that it was made when Honda had decent build quality 8-)
Cheers ;)
