Damn thats a ridiculous price...anyone want an 04 Silverstone? 23k miles. Honda certified used.

I think a well prepped AP1 will be faster than an under-prepped AP2... with that in mind do what you can afford

Why would you hold out for an 08 when you can get a cherry 06? Sell yours for 14 and pick up the 06, and the hondata flashpro. you wont!

The 50lbs or 1.9% of total vehicle weight will get lost in the noise of driver skill.... IMO. How many times has your fastest run been with a passenger?

You are preaching to the choir my friend. 100lbs in these cars will get lost in the noise.

I can definitely tell when I have someone (120lbs) in the car at an AutoX , the car fells sluggish, shifting points are different. Maybe is the way I drive

Sure, I'm not saying you can't feel it. I'm saying the usual noise or variance between runs will cover the extra weight. I can't say how many times I've done my fastest run with a passenger. The fastest runs I ever have are always when the concentration level is highest.
