If I can get a deal like the one you got, I'll go R3. I love the car and the warranty. Wish me luck.

Found 2 dealers inside 100 miles that still have an R3 left, but they are both Mica...Oh well. I will miss the Lightning Yellow...

Keep you posted.
I kept searching online doing a 500 mile radius lol because i knew if i found it... id drive to get it. Worth the 4 hour drive one way to pick it up!

I'd offer an interior swap, but I have red/black interior, and I don't imagine you want that with a blue R3, haha.

I've sat in the R3 seats before, and they were just right for me. I'm actually not that big of a guy, but for some reason, they just fit, and I loved them.

I bet you'll get used to them. I drove 4 hours to get my S1 and my back was killing me by the time I made it home. I thought maybe the seats just weren't that comfortable but after a week or so i got used to it. I'm sure it will be the same for you even though the R3 seats are a bit more sporting.

Congratulations on a great deal. Glad to see you stayed with a rotary!

Ah, I was looking at a red one at the dealer I got mine from, but being able to get my 04 for a third of the price is what made me go for it instead. There was a blue one for $23k with 9k mi a while back, just before I got mine in March, but they were being douchebags so I decided it wasn't worth giving them my money.

But blue is still absolute sexy, I approve. :P

Congrats! You'll love the R3 difference. I'm sorry you couldn't find one in red. Ha! Just kidding, I love the blue, too.
