Yodels,
So, after owning the car for over a year, I have finally got round to taking some pics of the FN2.
And, bizarrely, the only thing I have modified is the gearchange (quickshift) and lights (HIDs) - As this is my daily driver I can't be bothered with noise really. Not like me at all! Having owned 14 Hondas previous to this, I was expecting to have to fit coilovers to make it handle the way I like it (hard), but it has really impressed me - there's isn't much around that'll handle the roads of the Isle of Man straight out of the box like one of these. The ride is almost how I would set it up normally on a car with coilovers, although I'd probably dial in quite a bit more damping and a teeny bit of preload. But not worth messing with for me at present.
I didn't buy it to be frugal, but it does an indicated 28 mpg, which is impressive when you consider it gets nailed in VTEC everyday and most days will see 120-130mph on my commute. But I do pootle in speed limits, so I guess it balances out.
Thats' my thoughts, and here are some pics:
