i agree with champ r

 

Nope... that car really doesn't have anything more to offer me than what I have now.

 

You guys might think I'm crazy, but, no, I don't think I would buy a DC5-R if it came over now.

If you'd asked me that last year, the answer would have been yes.

However, having owned my EP3 for a while, now, even with the Mugen suspension it doesn't come close to the resiliance of the suspenson of the DC2 ITR.

The DC5 has the same suspension as my EP3, basically, so I'm kind of spoiled by knowledge aforesaid.

I don't know how to describe what I don't like, exactly. When you go over a gater in the DC2, you know what direction you'll be headed when it comes down. When you hit the air in an EP3, you're not quite sure how you're going to have to react when you hit the ground.

:shrug:

I've probably described that entirely inadequately. LOL...

For $16,000 the EP3 Si is a great daily commuter, but I can't imagine what on earth you could do to it to make it worth the $40,000 a DC5 R would cost.

Please do not throw tomatoes at the old guy.

Now, on the other hand...a TSX R would be something I'd have to take a good look at!
