- are you referring to the shift sequence?It's the same as LHD, just sitting on the other side.

They're not as much $$ as you think...there was one on Honda-Tech for about 3 months for sale, a 96 spec fully registered and legalized for $13500, took him a while to get rid of it. I beleive it was one of the guys from InlineFour.

I have no desire what-so-ever to own a RHD car. It would be so much of a hassle that it's not even worth it.
I went through the change lane at a toll both and was able to reach out for the change (then again, it's a Mini 
)The fun part is watching the reaction of your passengers. They reach for the keys when starting the car or try to depress the brake or the clutch when coming to a stop
I haven't gone through a fast-food drive through yet, but I don't think it'll be a problem. In fact, it'll be a lot of fun when I drive through in reverse
Also, it's easy to have a conversation with the person next to you at a light (which is good since you'll get a lot of questions). And if it's a cute girl, it'll be easy for her to hand you her telephone number

That's what I thought at first until I bought a RHD JDM Mini Cooper recently. The hassle of having a RHD is minimal, almost non-existent. I got used to it in five minutes. Sometimes I would find myself slowly drifting to the left since of course I'm used to being on the left side of the lane but I never cut anyone off I went through the change lane at a toll both and was able to reach out for the change (then again, it's a Mini )
