After months of waiting I finally drove down to PA, it was love at first sight :



The best ride back to Canada, ever :



Her new home :









I love you, S.

That's a big rip in the soft top for an 07. Still covered by warranty right?

It was a theft recovery, I replaced the soft top already.

I bought the car itself for $13,500 USD. But after restoring it and passing inspections I probably ended up paying around $16,000 USD.

is it hard to replace a top? honda is charging me 3000 for a soft top (hole in mine, not under warranty) ... What I was thinking was that I can buy a soft top from hardtopguy and put it on myself...

I had Honda install the soft top for me. They charged me $800 CAD; installing a soft top on your own can take up to twelve hours.
