Seriously? I see FD2Rs all the time. In fact I saw two different Mugen RRs in one trip out during the day - one in a parking lot at Tsim Sha Tsui, another at a garage down an alley in Kowloon Bay.

There's also a white FD2R parked on Wai Yip Street (parallel to Kwun Tong Road) all the time too.

Regular 8th gens are becoming more rare though, I think it has to do with the size getting bigger. There're Fits / Jazzes everywhere now though!

yes, depends on which area
if you are going to Mong Kok, Kowloon Bay area.....you should see a lot of DC5R, FD2R, GTR, Evo, WRX......
but if you are in Tsim Sha Tsui, Causeway Bay......you should expect more GTR, Ferrari and Porsche

ya... seems that mugen RRs are actually quite common now? Or maybe I just keep seeing those few that are around.
And there's still a fair bit of JDM muscle in Central... even though Ferarris and Lambos are quite common here as well. HK's just ballin'...

haha, can't say the Mugen RRs are common
but there are a few in HK.

you know why we seldom see JDM muscle in HK....
because HK people don't like to drive or don't know how to drive a MT...

There're actually a fair number of ppl in HK who know how to drive manual. In fact many ppl go for the light truck license (covers catagories 1 and 2) when they get their drivers license.

It's just that it's a PITA to do so on a daily basis with the way traffic is over here. I opted for dual clutch since I've gotten back too.

no, i don't really mean people don't 'know' how to drive
but they choose not to drive if they have a choice

That's part of the reason why there's so few R32, 33 and 34 'real' GTR on the street, and there're a LOT of R35 on the street now

i thought that ronn drives an r18, considering he has the r18 grill.

Hong Kong's local Honda Dealer sells the FA1 only, I believe. From pics I think Ronnn's is FA1.

FD1 and FD2s are still available if bought from Japan, and can usually get licensed over here. Personally I wouldn't bother doing that for an FD1 though...FD2 on the other hand... *drool*
