Right! It's nice, but just have to be alert... makes it exciting ?
There's still some pieces left to add to Blue (awaiting delivery), and best believe I will enjoy every last mile in the car!
Sorry to hear you may not keep Blue, it's a hell of an upgrade though. If you do move on and don't need those Superspeeds though...lets talkSoooo an a different note, I picked up a 2020 CTR with 6k kms / 4k miles !!!
I've put on another 500kms in the past week already bouncing back between Blue and the R. Really needed more space to haul exhaust systems, other large parts, and my own CTR build as between myself, @Thusee, and local friends we have the Si and 1.5T totally covered. Nima, and local customers have helped us test FK8 parts over the last year, but there's nothing like having one myself that me and Thusee can just take really dig into at any time for R&D and testing like we have our Si's.
Now for the sad part...I don't know if I can keep Blue past July 5 when the lease ends. If I can, amazing you will all see the progression of two builds. If I can't, I will buy out Blue and sell privately. Many parts moved over to the R, others already spoken for between the guys here so I won't have a forum part-out.
Let's see, there's a lot of moving pieces; as much as I love Blue for a million reasons I have a lot of money tied up in the car, which as you can understand running a business in COVID times I could use as cash flow for growth and operations.
So yeah, I had to take a deep breath and sigh as I type this...As excited as I am to have a CTR, the flip side has been thinking of having to let go of Blue in around 3 months
Thanks Mike! Let's see how things goSorry to hear you may not keep Blue, it's a hell of an upgrade though. If you do move on and don't need those Superspeeds though...lets talk
Yes!! Get max time with it just in caseThanks Mike! Let's see how things go
Still driving the Si plenty, and hoping to get it out for a few track days and road trips!
Hope you loved the read! Blue's been quite a car, and yeah the whole ownership journey being documented was the right move
I enjoyed following Blues build. This was the OG Si that inspired my build from the start. I will miss her.From the last update to now, Blue looks completely different. Just completing the final stages of part out, all the parts have already been sold / spoken for already. Kind of surreal to see 18 pages and 4 years of building this Si is coming to an end
Will list up Blue on Autotrader in the next 2 weeks or so, this isn't a goodbye at all since you know I'm active here as @Unity Performance, and things have been going well so I'll continue to the build the CTR alongside @Thusee and the guys

It's the end of the line for the build, but you know I'm not going anywhere! Driving with almost all of the stock parts has been really enjoyable actually, since most are relatively fresh as there was an aftermarket equivalent in their place for many years. I would have loved to keep Blue for the daily not only because of what the car means to me, but just how good it is as a daily. I'm glad I decided to keep the clutch in for the next owner, forget the slip but just no rev-hang and faster response makes the Si so much better!
I'm on the hunt for a sub-$10K Odyssey to haul parts around for Unity, and be my daily. CTR will be parked up for the winter. Thank You for looking!
I'll miss seeing blue. At this price you should sell pretty quick. Wish I had the funds to get it myselfPhoto dump, but here it is! Blue's ready for Sale, I have the title in my hand - no liens.

Canada ?
Would make a decent road trip, especially at that price.
