Thanks everybody

When you push the "sport" mode button it definitely makes a big difference. It's still not "fast" per se, but it's quick. Only 122 HP but it's light for a new car, at only ~2500 lbs., and it's got 128 ft-lb of torque at 1000 RPM from the combination of the electric motor and gasoline engine. Feels like a D16Z6 with more torque, for comparison.

nice ride looks like the crx's. kinda. the new cars depreciate too fast for my liking.

ordered white LEDs to replace map lights, rear interior dome lights, trunk light, courtesy lights, and license plate lights. Seems odd that the car has HIDs, LED tails, and LED side mirror turn signals but still has ugly yellow incandescent interior bulbs and license plate lights.

Got the LEDs yesterday, here's some cell-phone pics

i'd post the license plate lights but I can't really show you much of anything without leaving the license plate unblurred. so, here's the rest

trunk light: (looks dimmer in this photo than real life)


map lights



door courtesy lights


rear dome lights (shine on the cargo trays... where the rear seats are on the JDM version)




...and my domo. he rides in the back lol. friend gave me it
