^ If you know it, why don't you tell him.......

Anyway, the earliest will be 2010 I believe as the release of the BCNR33 was in 95.

I can't confirm the date/month, but I'm confident it was around January-February.

why 1995?

I thought the R33 was available back in 1993 or 1994.

unless you guys are talking about the R33 GT-R, the R33 GTS was available in 1993 but the GT-R was not available until 1995 January.
So they were selling R33 GTS and R32 GT-R at the same time.

^ yes the OP needs to learn to do maths and Timpo needs to learn to read English.

OP + Timpo = divide by zero.

coming from a guy who drives a torqueless wonder. There are plenty of places in the world other than vancouver that allow vehicles on the road that are both rhd and lhd for decades. Europe and Japan come to mind. Besides, my old used car can rape your dc5 for a fraction of the cost, and its completely reliable.

and life isn't always about a new honda. people have different tastes, new, used, old, lhd, rhd. u can't generalize some bad examples to all. besides i highly doubt he's driven any of the vehicles the op has commented on. roll them eyes somewhere else
