How long have you owned your FD?
 
I purchased my FD in january 1999, that makes 7 years and 10 months!! kept it through thick and thin. Just curious to see how many other people have had theirs.

Oct 2003...and still love like the first day I bought it....My car has come a long way..

To top it off the weird thing was that the first owner bought the car on my birthday in 1994..

2 years and a bit.. Was down for about one year lol

tt_13b93 11-14-06 10:45 PM

I see a few people on here have owned their cars longer than i have, but even if you only had it for a week, it will always give you the same adrenaline every time you drive it! every time im behind the wheel i feel like i just bought it and sometimes i cant believe it is mine.
