I guess I am a bit lucky!!

I have a 54' NHB CTR - which is actually hers but she lets me drive it on long drives and wet days! (she had a DC5 a few years ago after owning my old dc2!)

A JDM lude which is the beater .............but its only on 50k miles and looks cool with the kayaks on top!

Oh and the 380whpSupercharged S

Each car is very different .... but I love each one in its own little way! (depending on the weather and what I am doing!!!)

Made the same change last Nov.
Silver CTR for 5 years.
From picking the car up from the showroom until trade-in I had need of the back seats three times so really regretted not going for an S2000 for the latter part of my ownership. As others have commented the growing chav status of the CTR sealed the deal.
Enjoy.

Hi guys well after 6 years with my ctr. wifes conviced me to grow up a bit
and move onto to something else.
So sold my ctr yesterday and pick up my s2k next weekend.
(berlina with black/red interior) roll on next saturday!! hope the weathers fine.
Couldn't give a hoot what my wife says about my cars - I had a CRX for 14 years! Compared to that, the CTR is more mature .

I made the same move back in April and I and a member of the CTRO forums too. Have the 30AE CTR for good 5 years and chopped it in for an S much like the same fashion as many of the members on here

Just trying to talk myself out of dipping to another CTR while they are still doing 3yrs 0% APR......
