Indeed. Whomever gets this thing is getting a lot of Honda engineering resources and hours spent (wasted?) on making a shoe-box impress folks for no reason at all.
If that were near me the pull would be too strong and I'd buy it. OTOH, where I live, it would probably be worth another two or three thousand $$$$

Planning on Monday visit to your place
As I tend to do, I bit off more than I can chew and leaped before I looked, etc.... Long story short, my wife and I initially passed on this because we weren't sure if it would make a good long-term hauler for us, our dog and all of our stuff. We drove a rental car from Atlanta to Maryland to pick up something else. That didn't work out, and in haste we decided to buy this and have it shipped to us in Pennsylvania. We just finished a 3 week, 1,500 mile road trip with it, which included one track day. It's a fabulous track car and is exactly as advertised, in fact it's even better. However, for very long road trips it isn't ideal for my situation. I put it up on Craigslist at a high price to fend off the tire kickers who would inevitably go after it. I am 4,200 into it, including shipping. I am more than happy to let it go for $4,000. I hate that it didn't work out, I've had cars in the past not work out. I guess sometimes that's the risk of buying and selling frequently like I do. I can't say enough good things about the original seller, and how good this car really is. I got nothing but compliments everywhere I went. I really wish it was exactly what we want, because I do love it. Sadly, we are probably going to go to the minivan route.

Man, you're all over the place with you cars aren't you. half the posts in this forum are SKJSS selling something or debating buying something. Too bad this is all the way down in ATL, I don't have time to deal with that now but it's really cool. GLWS.
Man, honestly that thing is pretty sick. If I hadn't recently bought a daily I'd consider it. Tons of cargo room! I sent it to my handyman brother in law because that'd be hilariously awesome for a work truck, but it's a pretty far drive for him to be serious about it.

Yup. This wasn't intentional to turn it around, I wanted to keep it for a while (I will enjoy driving it locally until somebody buys it). Beyond that, I have the full support of my wife and I'm having a blast doing it. I love trying all kinds of different stuff.
