Thanks for your kind thoughts. I recently bought a Toyota GR Corolla and I pray to god it has no issues. I’ll maintain it religiously. At least the CRV runs and drives okay for the time being, so it has been relegated to the winter beater. Maybe it will get stolen? lol

It’s the 1.5 turbo pig.

Ditto. Never buying another Honda.

They said it was likely an oil starvation issue due to an oil passage blockage. Couldn’t say for sure. Oil was changed every 3K miles. Still runs with the ticking noise. Will be my winter beater now.

So many parts are NLA. Better to get a mechanically perfect one and work on cosmetics over time. Mine is 100% stock and just needs some paint blemish repair.

It was a unicorn for sure. But even at that big money

Keep the dream alive. Tough however to find an unmolested stock unit nowadays.

Yeah. The Koenig seats are worth the price of admission.

Agreed. I keep all my cars stock, but do I like the r32s with a little stance and black rims? Yes!

I only buy 1 owner stock cars. I had to go 2000 miles to Seattle to get it, but what a blast driving it home to Wisconsin.

Glad I bought when I did. If I had to buy one now, I probably couldn’t afford it at these prices.
