some very clean cb's

Sweet rides

[OHOYAMA]

the blue wagon has a xenon body kit not lip that front bumper looks nice!

[deevergote]

you are definitely right, the CB5 is known as a vigor not ascot
it did resemble the ascot but i see what you mean.
but this car is advertised as 2 wheel drive.

The Ascot is mechanically identical to the CB accord (it IS a CB, in fact.)

The Vigor had the CB5 chassis code for some reason, but also carried the CC2 and CC3 code... It really isn't related to the CB very much at all.


And yes, it is 2 wheel drive. The front wheels are driven.

that first coupe looks like a brand new version of mine !!

/want

So whats about these HOA badges anyway ??? are they sought after or something ??


And also on the side markers, every CB in NZ has them afaik, Can pick them up from pick a part for bugger all.

Strangly I have a (RHD) US coupe and it has them.

HOA badges are only on non-US models.

All the wagons were built in the US, and exported. That's why they have those badges.

If your wagon is RHD, it was made in the US... but it is not a US car. NO cars (other than postal vehicles) in the US are RHD.



Also yes... as said above, we didn't get the sidemarkers in the US. I believe they are required equipment in Japan, which is why all the Japanese vehicles have them. For the most part, it seems NZ and Australia get all the Japanese-spec vehicles.

from what i've seen the HOA badges were a jdm thing only

if you have a UKDM accord wagon " aerodeck " for say, it dosen't have the badges

These are from germany

Austrailia for the most part only gets mud spec japanese cars as their importing laws are as such to protect their own car manufacturing companies.

However here in NZ we for a long time had very relaxed laws and could essentially import anything from Japan and road register it.
This has changed now and cars of xx years old now can not (be imported) unless they are I think 20 years old in which case they can be imported as a SIV (special intrest vehicle)

Interesting about those badges, I had it in my head that every honda in America would have had them.

And yes I realise Everything there is LHD.....We have LHD rubbish trucks here and a bunch of old american cars as well.
Not sure if new US cars can still be brought here without being converted to RHD now...pretty sure they have to be now days.

i've seen cb6s with rhd for less even after shipping costs. i'd pay 6k for a good coupe though.

[hater]

you can have mine for $3k (NZD !!) and sort your own shipping

Hell ill even strip the spare sedan and fill the coupe up with all the good spares for ya

[CyborgGT]

need to look into making an import road legal still. i havent gotten around to talking to my dmv yet, and even then it'll be a couple years before i take my first real actions on contacting an exporter. other things need doing first... like contributing a write-up on fitting a jrsc in a lhd h-swapped cb.

I'd buy that wagon hands down, though the shipping and import fees will be more than the car itself. -_-
