I didnt sell accord for this. I had it long time already.

The thing is, not many in UAE know this car. It handles crazy when stock and is a GREAT platform. I just need some time to work on it.

just wait abit and see what can be done to this tin can. :D i do my research before getting myself into something. :)

BTW, i knew Eleanor would love it. :D

Well, I was about to buy it 3.5 years ago...in red, but opted for the Lancer '98 instead coz' it was cheaper to maintain. I always like the VW interior though, and the build quality.

Thats what worries about owning european cars here expensive parts & incompetent people to service them... Though a car like this fits for a beginner autoX car.. Handles well...

Whats the story of these 15"? r they lite weight alloys? cuz I like 'em.. could u tell me more about 'em?

ROJ, they're Rota Slipstreams 15"x6.5 ... weight isnt too heavy weighing in at 11.9lbs and that too for under 2,000dh which is real budget wheel ! ROTA for me anyday :-) Just booked a set for the Evo and ordered another set for my next civic build.

195/50/15 are plenty, but imlooking for 195/45/15.
I will talk to Vance to see what he got in stock. Potenza or Direzza for me man, those are the best street tires.

ROJ, these wheels are SUPER light. You can hold them up by one finger with tires of ofcourse. :) i weight them last night and its 5.6KG
