    I think you are incorrectly reading the word story to mean negative and undisclosed information about a car, which it sometimes does, however I think I was clear in my question that I was simply interested in the cars backstory. All cars have a backstory. I don't think I insinuated anything negative at all. Someone bought it new and gave it better treatment than most of its peers. That wasn't hard. I'm sorry I asked.

    No harm in asking, but as you say, you love a good story, however, as a business model (which I imparted to Sterling and he practices amazingly well), we are drawn to cars that have lead pretty uneventful lives, the more so, the better. I know this sounds boring when chatting with the guys, but you'll be surprised just how many cars are hidden away that have been meticulously maintained and scrupulously cherished, with no stories. The trick is to find them. Here's one.

    I love Type Rs, i've even owned the same one twice! I actually talked to you to see if you where interested before i sold it via BAT.
    I have another one now as well thought you might like to see it. For one year in Switzerland only (of all places) they sold a left had drive yellow version with yellow recaro seats. Only place in the world you could buy one. I found one last year in Austria, had a buddy in the UK drive down, buy it, trailer it back to the Uk and ship it over
    I am trying to find a euro spec red one, but haven't found the right one yet

    I always wanted a yellow one. They came out right after I got my SSB GSR. The yellow seats just knock it out of the park. Would look sweet inside the black one for a 90's Wu-Tang theme. lol

    The Japanese one is very nice I just didn’t want RHD. The euro version is like a mishmash of cars from around the world. They have the US spec front end, JDM motor with 11:1. Compression, and the jdm trans with the 4.785 final drive. They all got Recaro seats, all badged as Hondas and the rear fog light. Oh also has head light height adjusters
