Default Millionth Honda, First S2K

Howdy.

I sold my '87 Prelude race car and bought the wife an IS300. Since she has the 'family' car (boosted and stanced lol) I decided to finally pull the trigger on damn near the only Honda I've never owned. NFR was my biggest requirement, so I drove a few in my area and found this one to be in the best shape. 103k miles, no mods besides wheels and exhaust, and it had a brand new OEM soft top. The paint was horribly oxidized, but salvageable. I felt pretty good dropping 9k on it. Here are some pics from the day I brought her home.
