There is a Honda club in Singapore ... Check out http://asia.vtec.net/ under the clubs section. Though I think you'll be the envy of all the guys, they're mostly young guys who own Civics, Integras / some 4-door Type Rs and probably that's about it? Sorry, didn't know you were married but no doubt you bought the car for a pretty good deal. 20 in Singapore, you have a very small ratio of seeing even one on the road at any given time.



Though I must say, in these last few years ... The J-Spec import market has opened up. I know of a few friends whom I used to work with driving Evolution 5s and 6s and STi sedans as well. But ultimately, the country has no room for any serious driving to be done. Most of them head up north to JB, Malaysia to do their high speed driving on those highways. I've heard stories of Proton cops trying to catch them but can't simply because they're underpowered and have poor handling in any class ... Even Civic SiRs have no problem with Protons.

Welcome!
I grew up a tad further north of Singapore than that, 400 miles maybe, in Penang.
The last time I was back home (about 6 months ago, right after the Tochigi factory visit), I saw a yellow S2000 on the road there (it probably cost much more too, with a 300% tax).
