Just picked up a new silver Euro Lux (6MT) from Courtney and Patterson here in Melbourne today.
Dealt with James (user UNLS1 on these forums). Top bloke to deal with.. highly recommended if you are looking for a new Honda.

Anyways.. the car drives awesome everything I expected it to be and more. Love the little touches on the car, like the sunglass holder and the great ergonomics.

Now for the mods...

My Nov 2003 euro 's badge on steering wheel has mat finish, whereas other owners with 04's and 05 models have glossy finish.. (like a clear acrylic laminate over big :honda: )

I got my Euro exactly the same time (Nov 03) but I got the 04 model instead. Maybe it was the first shipment due for sale in 04. Lining inside the bonnet?? I have this insulating thing under my bonnet....is that what people are talking about??

You are lucky. I placed my order in sept 2003, car delivered early Nov 03.
so my should still be 03 spec.

yeah, looks like only 2005 models missed out on the insulation linning under the bonnet. KL1368 confirmed me that. is that the case for other 2005 owners too?

my 03 model doesn't get chrome trim in the middle of air vent outlet adjustment handle thing. :(
