Mint looking F1 Accord

[Steve_Si]

But it's too far away for me to buy!!! He wants US$280 for it with 95,000 miles on the clock and a dodgy oil pump.

Wohdog and Overdosed, this is much closer to you guys.

heres a old quote:

The Accord 2.0Si F1 was a limited edition 1986 Accord model (JDM only I believe?). It had a full black/dark grey interior and the front seats had a Honda F1 Race Team emblem stitched into them. It had the same logo in the centre of the steering wheel and on the outside it had the emblem on the front window monsoons and on the bottom of the rear doors. As far as I have seen they only came in White.

that's pretty much what makes the f1 different to every other 2.0si

[MessyHonda]

it has a b20 right?....to bad its auto

[A18A]

ya manuals are hard enough to find, i know of one i could get but its like $200, and i have no b20 to put it on :P

[MessyHonda]

let hope it does not shoot up in price

[Steve_Si]

Yeah it's just a 2.0si with F1 written all over it.

IMO the 2.0Si Exclusive is a nicer car, with full black leather interior, electric seats and climate air.

But that F1 is still cool, it even has the mugen front lip

Why are these cars in NZ anyway? they would sell for 10 times the price here.

Well why don't you do something about it then!

Mr. lives in a country that can import any cars thats 15 years or older!


JK

[2oodoor]

Dam this is frustrating, OK how much would it cost to bring back ten or so of these JDM cars to the States?
These are some cool cars to just let rust over in NZ, no offense, but if nobody wants them what happens to them.

I know your joking, but I'll explain anyway...

About 15 years ago we got rid of all import taxes on used and new cars. We are a RHD country, just like Japan. The Japanese culture, like alot of other asian countries, considers "old" cars to be worthless junk. After 5 - 10 years they ship their used cars off, and we get lots of them

We're starting to see 7th gen imports now, inc a 220HP K20A powered Euro-R. 5th gen imports have basically stopped.

You guys should pool your money, send someone with a bit of spare time here to organise a container load of parts. Not much point taking whole cars if you can't register them to be driven.

And yes, they are left to rust down some forgotten old part of a junk yard. It's a shame that no one here cares. There still are lots and lots around, but another 5 years and they will be a rare sight.

Excellant Idea, but unfortunatley, and I do not speak for everyone, we are a bunch of broke ass fuckers here. The table will turn soon enough though, and then the K20A Euro-R sounds a lot more enticing to make the trip.
Seriousley, the members of 3Geez should get together on something like this, to keep our cars up to date. I am not getting rid of mine anytime soon, and I would absoluetly buy another one.
