!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! : purveyor of the finest Japan has to offer. And I do not use “finest” lightly. Except it seems someone forgot that when they purchased this deeply confusing Honda Accord wagon.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

It really doesn’t matter that I think the paint is too gaudy and the wheels are entirely too large. What matters is just one question: WHY? Who would look to the humble Honda Accord for a retro inspired woody wagon? And it doesn’t stop outside.

No, this has a full custom interior, which relies heavily on that bright blue color.

Oh my! That is simply a most unfortunate steering wheel! And did they leave the autobox trim stock despite its cheap black finish clashing with the glossy blue plastic?

Oh. I guess we know why it was created now.

Stock engine? I don’t know. But I can see the engine was out and the paint job was very thorough. I’m kinda impressed.

And the price to own this blue blob of bourgeois bling?

$30,000!

And finally, a little humor. For some reason, I cannot find Duncan’s description; it its place is this bar from Kelley Blue Book on Accords, which includes someone boasting about their 2004 Pilot’s reliability. I don’t think this is particularly useful.

That’s would be a fun car to own, and drive.

For like 8 grand max.

If it was a few shades closer to seafoam I could get behind it............around $10k.........even then it’d be stretching.

Was there ever a japanese equivalent of “pimp my ride”?

The car as a whole isn’t bad...aside from the stick on wood paneling...that part just ruins it. The rest seems clean, fresh, and well done.

Drove me crazy back then, drives me crazy now. It’s like a bad truck cap on a sedan.

A for effort on the modding, though.

It’s glorious.... on the outside. The price is insane but I absolutely love the exterior design minus the wheels which should be steelies with chrome  smoothie hubcaps.

I disagree, you would be miserable driving a piece of calculated poor taste where a single scratch would half its value.

I would pay 8 grand not to see it, and I certaintly wouldn’t give 30k to hate myself.

That blue just doesn’t do it for me, though it is extremely high quality. In my mind, too high quality.

It’s a USDM car, so...Pimp My Ride.

Those wheels are just. . . so inappropriate and wrong. They kill the aesthetic.

Someone needs to photoshop it in this color:

I think it would look 100x better.

I took the "Import" part of their name too literally. My mistake.

...the shop in Japan went the extra mile? Overnighted parts from California? (Not really, but more fun that what actually happened which was me misreading the dealership name)

WHY IS THIS CAR NOT ON 13" DAYTON WIRE WHEELS?

That’s fair. USDM cars are indeed not their typical stock. Although they do have a bunch in their “PRIVATE COLLECTION NOT FOR SALE” section on their website for some reason.

Makes me wonder why they even bothered with this one.

I’m surprised to see what I assume to be the original F series engine under the hood. With the amount of money that went into this, a B-series swap would’ve been well within the range of de mi nimis.

I absolutely love this, and would totally own it.

For a third of this price.

I simply don't get why it has that engine in it, or those wheels.
