new pics of my FD
I am a former FD owner, so I can say that it is a car that is a love hate type of relationship. Smile per mile is hard to beat, but if you didn't get one that was well taken care of, you can take a beating financially and if you are anal like me, you will get to know the shop mechanics well. 
I bought mine around 45K miles and believe I had to make up for the lack of maintenance as it was a problem child. Thank goodness I got an extended warranty as by the time I sold the car I cashed in over $15K in repairs. with the last one being $11K putting in a Pettit Street Ported Engine, new turbos, and ECU. Eck!! I ended up selling my R1 FD. I must admit that some days I miss it terribly while other times I appreciate the reliability of my S2000.
If they had the LSx swap back then, I probably would have kept my FD, as it was almost as clean as this one.

absolutely beautiful.
looks like you put a lot of hard work into this - you'd never be able to get enough $ for all that effort. keep it.
it looks exactly how i would want mine if i had the spare $ to get one, except mind would be white w/ black interior and sportin' a set of volks.
