Auctions are not a reflection on reality in car pricing. Lots of people use it to set the market for vehicles they will stockpile.

What makes this so special over the base CTR anyways? Is it just the plaque that says 1/x? Because apart from that the changes are miniscule. I mean for these price premiums I’m expecting say some engine power, maybe a slightly larger turbo, revised gearing, a more agrressive lsd. I can rip out the sound deadening and get bbs rims myself.
Color does look great though, and congrats on basically winning a $30k lottery.

Basically it's an awesome car, but for the $70k people are paying in the US it's way overpriced. There's objectively better cars than that for that kind of money. He said it's basically hondas version of the GT3 (less for more).This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Congrats though, whether it's kept or sold, it's awesome.
I'm sorry, how could you possibly know this? You keep backpedaling with every post. Your assumptions have been wrong at every turn.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Good lord man, just give it a rest. Your strange and unprovoked attempt to insult me out of nowhere has backfired about as much as it possibly can. Can we just let the thread return to normal?
~50lbs weight reduction in the form of removing sound deadening, lighter wheels, lighter tires, less featuresThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Rims are 4.5lbs lighter (automatic dampening software adjusted accordingly)
Continental tires are swapped for Michelin PS Cup 2's which also save weight
Electric steering is tuned a bit stiffer
No rear wiper or cargo cover
Exclusive paint job
No powertrain changes
The regular CTR wheels are surprisingly heavy so that is probably the most noticeable change with all that unsprung weight gone.
Agreed, you can get a Supra, M2 or C8 for that type of money.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Could see someone picking one up if they are a Honda collector, but otherwise there are cars that offer much better value for money.

Let’s see where this goes.
Lol what? You just said it yourself you would rather buy a regular one and keep the diff since you see no added value. . I didn't make that up you posted itThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
If only you know how many reps I got from calling you out.

It's a fair bit faster on the track too.
Likely due mostly to the Cup 2 tires.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Once again, I did not say that. Those are entirely your words. What I said was, if I were him, I would sell it for a ridiculous premium, just like several others in this thread who you did not "call out". You put so many words in my mouth you are basically having a conversation with yourself at this point. I haven't said a single thing you have accused me of, and you have conveniently not answered any of my questions - gee I wonder why that is.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

Here's what I said that seems to have originally prompted you to start making things up:
Not a single word about seeing no added value, not a single word about the car not exciting me - those are 100% your words and those false assumptions are what seems to be upsetting you. Now do you see how ridiculous that is? I don't know how much farther you can back pedal, but I'm sure I'll find out. Like others who have commented on the subject, it seems like they would also consider selling to for a ridiculous premium, but I don't see you telling them their opinion doesn't matter as they are also not the target market by your own definition, as if you are some kind of authority on the subject.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

Oh look, three other people who commented that by your definition are "not the target market" including the guy who actually got the LE that you didn't seem to have a problem with:

I don't know what your problem with me is specifically, but get a life man, you come off as very petty and childish. You are literally fabricating things to get upset about. As I have said previously, I am genuinely excited for Jordan and I hope whether he decides to keep or sell as he is considering, he gets what he wants.
JFC let it go. The internet, and people on it, should not be taken seriously.
Dude!!! I TOLD YOU not to reply to him, Team_Mclaren.
Enjoy the fucking wall of text everyone...
You figure when more than a few people call him out on shit that maybe, just maybe, people aren't picking on him for no apparent reason. But go ahead and keep playing the victim card.

Way more entertaining than I thought a Honda thread would be.

I get neg reps for having good reps. It's a weird system.
Anyway, to summarize, Honda good.
