Question 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..
