So this is going to be a bit different. I was planning on stripping the car down and making a NASA Honda Challenge race car out of it, but another opportunity has popped up and I have decided to sell the car. I will add some current pictures of the car as is and give the buyer the ultimate choice on how you want the car. I can reinstall as much or as little of the interior as you'd like. This will be a great car for someone to get some free boltons along with the car. If you want a full interior, I'll put it back at your request. I will say it has been nice having the back seat and trunk panels out since there is a ton of room. Also, I don't get stuck driving my friends around.

Currently, the trunk panels are gone, the backseat is gone, the headliner is gone, the back door panels are gone, the rear deck panel is gone, and a few more panels have been removed as far as the interior is concerned. I have all of the parts and they can go with the car wether they are installed or not. In addition, the underwood plastic pieces are off the car and the same can be said about those as well. They are paint matched as an added bonus.

The car itself has 89,960 miles of mostly highway driving back and forth from Auburn, AL to Alpharetta, GA. It is mechanically perfect. I will put a list of mods down below this. The problems with the car include the following: the front fenders and hood suffer from the dreaded Honda Crows Feet paint problem. I will get a picture of that, but it is not too noticeable. I am a detailer (at least until I graduate college) and will be coating the car for the buyer (usually an $800+ affair). It is basically a super strong wax that should last 2++ years. As far as the interior goes, the car has a couple notable issues. The seats have a few tears front and back that you can see in the pictures. Also, the tint (20% high end Ceramic tint) has some scratches that aren't really too bad. I tried to get a picture of that but it was somewhat difficult to see. Other than that the car is very nice.

As far as Mods go, I have a number of boltons and cooling mods that I have done. One big thing that I think buys may like is the built in Escort Passport SR7 Radar Detector Plus Laser Shifters (Jammers). This detector was about $1200 when new plus $400 for the install. It is great and has saved me countless times. I'll try to get some pictures of it. The car also has pretty new tires. They are probably about 3000 miles and 6 months old. They are also very Ultra High Performance Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport tires. The heatsoak or pulling of timing that plague these cars is almost completely gone. The brake setup I am running is incredible. The brakes have never felt very good on this car until I got the setup I currently have. It stops hard and has no heat issues. It's got Racing Brake front and rear rotors. EBC Yellowstuff pads rear, Hawk HP Plus pads front, and ATE DOT 4 Brake Fluid. This is a great way for someone to buy the car and get thousands of dollars of free mods.

Mods,

Please close and delete this thread. I have a new FS post with up to date info and pictures of this car. The car's interior is now completely back together. It is basically a completely different car and the price has dropped. Thanks.
