I have been looking for a clean 07/08 manual within 500 miles for a long time, to compliment my AP2V2 S2000. Trouble is most people took these for granted and the interiors are in bad shape. Minor bodywork is no big deal but replacing scratched, peeling and snapped interior bits is just not tenable with the parts supply chain as it is today, for a car that debuted nearly 20 years ago. There are fewer S2000s but finding a cherry Laguna Blue proved to be easier than finding a clean TSX. This example is unbelievable and I wonder where it was hiding.

The Milano Red was a tough color, didn't do very well unless you apply wax on a monthly basis
Nice good looking TSX... question: what is the Offset on those new Wheels
Of course its always a matter of taste. But with Honda it seems like CE28N is as good as it gets. On a white car that light Bronze color seems to work the best. But.. can't go wrong with Mugen either.
