    Ha I never saw that SE-i commercial. I'd love to have a perfectly mint, bone stock 85 SE-i.

    The SE-i models seemed to wear the hardest. The leather doesn't seem to last long, and they're usually victims to the same rust as the rest of them. New leather seat covers and door panels, new carpets, and fresh paint is all they usually need though. I was just saying, I would love to have one, and not change a thing. Stock wheels and everything.

    I love that commercial. I never saw it. My first experience with the car was when I was in the 4th grade. I saw it several times when some kid was getting dropped of in it. Decades later, I was reading through an old journal from those days. I had written that I wanted the brown 4dr 1985 SE-i .

    When my car started rusting I dreamed that I would some day restore it. Being the 2nd owner, I mostly wanted to experience the car as it was brand new. Each repair gets me closer .

    Overall, though the car has been great. Every time I drive it I am reminded of how good it is, and how unfortunate it is that in my opinion, Honda has not done a proper SE-i since 1989.
