After 2 years of driving around with Chris_F and his sick Euro the wifey and I finally picked up our second Honda. We sold our Mazda 3 Sport and replaced it with an 03 Euro 6MT. I love this thing, we are so happy with it. We got it for a steal! And before you ask, there are basically no planned modifications for this car, I dont need another car like my EG lol. I have done a couple of really minor things since the purchase tho;

- Removed intake resonator :thumbsup:
- Installed some brand new OEM Mud flaps :thumbsup:
- Replaced the 'ivtec' decal on the backwindow, it looked shitty. :thumbsup:
- Installed a 240mm flat broadway mirror :thumbsup:
- Spent a day polishing/waxing the paint as is was very scratched/scuffed :thumbsup:

When its due for a service ill throw on some K&N filters. When other parts wear out, Ill replace them with aftermarket units but for the time being, stock is where its at. Im am extremely impressed with how it performs for a standand Honda, a 5 year old standard Honda at that too. I now remember why I got into Hondas in the first place. Coz they IS the shit! :thumbsup:

Big thanks to Chris and Dave for their help with the purchase :thumbsup:

Pics arent too crash hot. It was the wrong time of the day, the Euro wasnt that clean and oh yeah, Im a friggin noob! C&C is welcome tho.

cheers
Trav
