Porn. And rare in black, too! Just wish they weren't so stupidly priced.

Cheers guys. I'm personally a fanboy for black cars, although the white ones are smart. Goes pretty well to say the least! So much fun when vtec kicks in y0.
I agree with the price thing.. I guess its understandable because they're rare etc. I'd have never bought one at the normal price, but I got this for a very good price off a mate so it was justifiable, and boy was it worth it!

I assume you owned a Saxo before, how would you compare the one to the other?

Such a nice car, shame that they are so expensive! I'd love a White one. I'm a Honda noob when it comes to engines, out of curiosity why do people fit the B18 engine, is it a lot quicker?

The B18 will fit directly in the EK9's bay. The B16 engines and B18's are indentical, sound mounting points in the bay.
EK9 engine is a higher compression 1600 with 185bhp, B18 or DC2 Type R is a 1800 with 197bhp IIRC. Doesnt need to be ragged quite as hard to get it going.
