Hi. I just found out that my fc has major rust damage to the frame rails and under body so i'm now thinking of moving on to an fd. I saw this one on auto trader...what do you guys think of the price?

I like it!

 

Since the Canadian dollar is now at parity with the US dollar, this makes even less sense than before. You can get a very nice low mileage FD in the US for $21k - and you will not be sitting in the wrong side of the car.

This car probably cost $7k in Japan.

 

Not to be flamed or anything but isn't RDH kinda cool? I know if the fc world we talk about it...and flame newbes that think they can do it from a busted front clip. (Untill they show us the pic of it in there drive way. lol.)

 

Only if you are a teenager.

 

Nothing wrong with RHD. It's the opposite side of the car, big deal. It presents a few new driving challenges and removes a few as well. Parking becomes easier, left turns become harder, right turns become easier, etc.

Merging into traffic from a dead stop by a curb is my number one hate in a RHD car, closely followed by left hand turns at traffic lights - I tend to just avoid that alltogether if I can, I usually just find another way to turn left where I can see everything clearly in front of me.

Don't turn down a car just because it's RHD. People all over the world use a mix of LHD and RHD cars, it poses no real problems, you just have to be mindful of your driving (Which is a good thing, most people these days can't drive worth **** anyways, it's best if you have to work a bit harder at paying attention)

 

My FD is RHD drive and its great! I live in Australia, so everything RHD... i've driven cars in LHD and I have to say, I prefer RHD... I felt I have more control over the car and changing gears is easier with my left hand :P

 

No

 

It all depends on what you are used to... People who have driven LHD cars all their life say the same thing about RHD cars (and vice versa).

IMO, if your country/area is RHD, then get a RHD car. If you country/area is LHD, get a LHD car.
