Bwahahahaha, Honda fanbois are hilariously sad.

Thats just plain stupid. They must have real bad anal leakage for wetting their pants.

It's a collector thing.

Heck, I would love to have that CRX (but wouldn't spend that much for it), that interior remind me of my first very first car, the '89 Honda Prelude. Love that freaking car.

"Fanbois" in general are that way, not just Honda. I've seen a few Toyota fanboys recently that love to generalize. This is true of being a fanboy of anything.

CRX's are blah, Trueno's are nice as hell.

What a bunch of noobs, don't they know anything about odometer rollback? It's really not that hard to do..

You're a douche.

On another note, check out this cool avatar from that forum :D http://hondamarketplace.com/zeroavatar/140751


So why is he a douche? Mechanical odos are notoriously easy to roll back. I just wonder why the first two numbers on the odo, the "0" and the "2" don't line up with the other numbers. The zero, at least, would have never moved from its original set position, and the 2 would line up properly with the other numbers in the odo, if I'm seeing it correctly.

Why wouldn't they line up properly? The "2" isn't ready to move upward to the "3" yet; the "7" is way aways from moving the "2" up to the "3" position. And even if the "0" is in its original location, off a bit, the "2" should have lined up with the rest of the numbers once it clicked over to 10K and 20K miles, just like the rest of the numbers are lined up.

I also wonder why the seats are out of the car in most of the interior pics.......and only show in one interior photo. Also, the clutch pedal looks a bit more worn on the left lower edge than wear for 24K should show.

Just some questions............probably wrong about it, but the poor alignment of the odo numbers really raises some red flags in my mind.

I personally don't see these people being excited over this car as proof of their being labeled "fanbois". A car that old in that good shape would elicit admiration from just about any type of true automotive aficionado.

Sure, do that and you'll spend time in jail.

But only if you're caught, and if the present owner has had it only 7 months, and the previous owner had it from new, the title was never updated for mileage from its originally titled mileage of zero or two miles. So who's to say what it was just before it sold? And one member mentioned he thought it sold on ebay to the present owner, another flag. Just playing devil's advocate, but the odo alignment bothers me, and having looked at MANY mechanical odo's over the 3+ decades I've been driving, the number alignment just isn't right.
