I wonder if Americans will want them. If that is the case DC5R is a performance bargain that will possibly increase in value.

Also I figured out where the white CTR in my neighbourhood lives. 190e 2.3 in driveway, used to have a mk1 mr2. Y’all gotta be on here

Not quite Type-R but, man, what a sleeper. I never realized back in the day.

FK8 owners - how much are you paying per month for financing? And how much for insurance per year?

trollface 07-18-2019 06:40 AM

Can't you find every possible financing scenario on the Honda payment calc?

looks like payment starts at 694 per month tax in, 0 down, 84 months at 5.24% through Honda finance.

insurance pending on your driving history.......... pretty sure you can get a quote by calling any icbc autoplan.

Do ppl really finance cars over 7 years @ 5%+?

That's....interesting

underscore 07-18-2019 09:42 AM

People go for some absolutely terrible financing. It's bad enough on a new vehicle, but some are doing it on 15+ year old JDM imports.

84, 96, 108 months... seen it.


then again they are open loans usually and lump sum payments are ok.

monthly payments have became much more affordable nowadays.... hence the amount of current STI's and Tacomas/4runner driving around town

at this time of year, the STI has 60 @ 1.49% and if you have another recent MY subaru you may qualify for their loyalty finance discount and get that down to 60@0.50%

Never know what can happen in life too.

^ that too, you better have a good chunk of the payments covered right off the bat because for the first while what you owe on it is a lot more than the resale value.

320icar 07-18-2019 01:20 PM

You really have to be sure on your finances. I don’t see much of a problem with financing a vehicle as long as your smart about it! Any new vehicle is going to lose value, but you can minimize that by optioning it correctly and choosing a car you can sell easily if need be. The focus ST/RS fall into that category

I remember my first girlfriend bought a Chevy aveo or something before we got together. By the time she still owed ~15,000 it was only worth $8,000 on the used market. Now THAT is the kind of vehicle you don’t buy lol

tofu1413 07-18-2019 04:59 PM

the people that bought / financed 1M's are laughing right now.

trollface 07-18-2019 07:34 PM

Niche M cars seem to always do well. Mcoupes etc.

Competition white :( I'll let it slide since I enjoyed the story and pictures.

Dang... did that one guy just disrespect the Type-R sloshing energy drink on the valve cover while the damn plugs are out?!

twitchyzero 07-28-2019 09:54 AM

poor girl, being molested for the whole world to see :cry:

how many untouched Canadian MY01 left?

TouringTeg 07-28-2019 03:14 PM

I tracked down about 40 of the 185 CDM 2001 cars. Some don't want to share badges and there are more hidden out there. Maybe 90 left? Can't be many.

The ITR will likely be a "buy some merch and get an entry to win" type of contest.
