Buying Decisions

DC5R is an awesome drive! My dad let me have 1 drive of his type R and now I have a burning desire to drive again. If you don't like the dc2's interior then go the newer dc5, pay extra and be happy

Type R all the way my friend....all the way.

I dont want turbo. Insurance and personal choice. I just want a N/A.
Does anyone have any sugesstions where I can get a DC5R. I checked all the auto sites, and paper (SMH today, only one for sale and it was 37k).
I would love a 2001 model for around 30.
Anyone selling one, or know someone that is?

justinfox sold his dc5r for 30k i think? hehe. not too sure. u missed out buddy

Go with the R dude. That extra money would be well spent in my opinion. From what i've heard, everyone that chooses the R never looks back. Plus, with the DC5 (not Type R) u'll always be thinking "what if?". Better the R and be satisfied - than the DC5 and having thoughts of the DC5R in the back of ur mind haunting you. Just my opinion though...

Spot on. DC5R is the only car ive had in mind to buy for the last year. I will not b 100% satisfied with the standard DC5, its just such a big proce diff

Then get the R and don't let anyone tell u otherwise, at the end of the day it comes down to the car ur satisfied with having in ur driveway. Good luck with ur decision. All the best.
