Default Blair's New Wheels, and the '04 in Rio Yellow....

I got a call from Blair again, they just got their second '04. This one is Rio Yellow. Blair has a Spa, so we had a GREAT opportunity to park them side by side and take these shots.

Rio has a LOT more pearl in it than Spa. Other than that, it doesn't look very different UNTIL you see the two side by side. Then the difference is instantly apparent. Enjoy!!















Here are Blair's awesome new wheels for those who have not seen them yet:

Those rims look like Mugen RNR's I believe.

I was up at EGHonda to pick up my S from service and was checking out the spa as well. I didn't have the luxury of seeing them side-by-side, but from the naked eye it looks like the front bumper, rear bumper and all lights are interchangeable. I'm sure we are going to be seeing a lot of swapping soon if they are!

Seeing them side by side, there are only two things I like better about the new model: rear bumper cover and exhaust. The older cars are just meaner looking from the front.

Oh and Station and I took the 2004 out for a little spin, no vtec'ing but it sure pulled nice in the lower gears and shifted sharper, also cornered nicer than stock because of the lowersidewalls...sounds a little different as well...don't think anyone will miss the 9k redline...rio yellow has to be seen in person...!!!! beautiful! but i'll still keep mine....
