Well after a 450 mile round trip went to pick up the Honda Integra DC5.... previous to buying this i had never even sat in a dc5 it was always one of them cars id always liked but never bought! so i decided to take a punt... upon first viewing these cars are so much nicer in the flesh inside and out than pictures do justice, the seats are awesome and the driving position is low slung and as you would expect very sports/coupe'ish my mate says i look 10 when im sat in it lol, mine has had some mild tuning with hondata which is like a remap smoothing out power curve and enhancing the titanium exhaust and manifold etc. handling wise it has brembo's and eibach springs with camber bolts and its had a fast road setup to compliment the limited slip diff so turn in is like a fly ha. overall im quite impressed and very happy with build quality and toys for such a car from here i will see how she goes only 63k on the clock too! sorry for rant just giving my pennies worth for anyone interested lol

My old boss had one aswel as a 350z. Until both got stolen the same night and the police abandoned the chase.
They got it back a few week later.
Looked identical to yours. Such an awesome car!

yeah championship white is most sought after colour! but to be honest in the flesh i did'nt like it more of a cream colour but white ones do get red interior which lush..... i love the blue personally and pics dont do it justice its lovely blue when polished up!
well this one has lived in devon since import in 2009. plus i gota full hpi check done came back all clear.

Love it. Was a guy offering a swap for one of these with my FN2 plus cash my way when I had it. I was very tempted but had my heart set on the Scooby at that point.
Same colour too, amazing

Don't like the white wheels but these are awesome cars, my mate had one in blue. Wish I could afford one over a CTR!

i was not keen from pics but in the flesh they really suit it there 18's so fill the arches really well and the spokes poke out just enough!! plan was to change them or go gunmetal but think im gonna stay white now!... there a base white though im thinking of refurbing them in a pearl metallic white with neo chrome wheels nuts....
