Good afternoon all.
I'm a veteran of other car internet forums, so I know what a massive wealth of knowledge they can be for specific marques. Decided this would be an excellent place to research a potential purchase.
Essentially at the moment, I have a 1999 Civic ES as my daily runner, and a 2000 Integra Type-R in the garage for weekends and track days.
Impending baby means freeing up a little money and reducing the fleet to one car.
Friend of mine has a 53 IS200 auto with the TTE kit. Always loved it, so looking into getting an IS200 or Altezza, for the sake of practicality, comfort, safety and a little sportiness.
I'll be scouring the forums for info, and may well end a more permanent member if I pull the trigger.
Basically looking into:
- Things to look for when buying
- Are high milers OK
- What maintenance needs doing at relevant intervals
- Are imports (Altezza) a good choice and what differences from UK models (besides obvious power from the Beams)
- General running costs
Does the forum also organise meets?
Hope you're all well. :)
