Just won this on BAT 3 days ago.
The transport outfit is picking her up for delivery this Monday, 1999 Honda Acty SDX 4WD Pickup 5-Speed.
Very excited as it probably gets 1,000 mpg... okay, I exaggerated a tad.

If anyone's interested specs are here;

    Congrats! Won't see another one of those in the neighborhood. I always thought I'd find it awkward manually shifting a right-hand-drive vehicle.

    Thanks bcwsrt,
    I thought the same exact thing.

    My brother bought one and told me to take it for a drive. I don't know about that shifting with my left hand. Brother said it'll take about 5 minutes, and he was right.
    Only thing is the turn signals, I kept turning on the wipers whenever I made a turn.

    Cool vehicle! I have been hearing the Kei truck imports are popular now in the US. Just passed the 25 year import restriction mark on this one. Low mileage on that one.

    When I had a dam job I would see those. The USACE maintenance crews use those. They love them even though I think they were the Nissan versions.
