You've got to admit... Despite the torture he put that FD through, that guy must be quite a salesman.

Unfortunately, you cannot teach taste. Either you have it or you don't.

It's headed to Mexico. (NO THATS NOT A RACIAL SLUR. The car is going to Mexico.) Guess it has some value there.

Cars been the same for like 4 years... I'm sure people sweated the hell out of it back in the day.

I agree, salesmen sprout the word veilside like it is some sort of thing to be worshipped, then when you go look at the car it just looks crap. The fit of the veilside parts is just laughable.

OMG! That poor 7!!!! Don't let him get an NSX, he already screwed up one really nice car that could of had major potential, let's protest this! I hope the guy that bought the 7 is going to redo everything on it.

I think this is the one time "FUGLY" should be used.

Hate to see another FD gone to the dark side. . . i mean *veil*side

Come on guys, its not THAT bad. True it doesn't suit my taste, but it is, for sure, eye catching and memorable. Soemtime next year when were all shooting the **** whats gonna be easier to remember, "that red FD" or "that crazy lime green FD."

With that beign said, I oly have one last thing to say:
How about NO?!!

what happened to the paint job? did the guy paint and drink at the same time? is that car drivable? cause the windshield has so many stickers that you can't even see where you're driving. I also need to sell a car do you think if i put a rice wing on a new altima i can sell it for $30000?

He KNOWS what he did to the 7. It was YEARS ago. That's why he sold it. He has really good taste... It's less expensive for him to start over than take the car back to stock... It was a show only car. Henry's a cool *** guy and has plans to do a "GO" car this time...


And yes, all the miles are original. No rebuild. It's not that hard to do. Stock boost, low mods, fresh oil. What's hard to believe about that?

No. The wing is not the only thing on the car. At least its ******* rear wheel drive. Jeesh...

If you look close, the car has a lot of cosmetic work... Paint was $$$. Body kit is molded... Lots of things.. It was a SHOW CAR> Ever been to a show? They put the stickers on the car for the show, silly. Not to drive around..

I have seen that car.. he had just put his new bleacher on, and couldn't figure out why he couldn't make it over 120mph. hahaha

That and he was going on about his "Italian imported leather"


Guy seemed nice, but didn't know much about anything.. But he liked to talk like he did.

Yup, right where I left it. Always thought that picture made some kind of statement....don't know what the statement is but it was a statement.


Sorry to see the thing go south, it was kind of a fixture at RH.
