Yes, I am a brand-spanking new owner of an absolutely stunning CX500. I don´t know why folks disliked the looks...I actually find them quite easy on the eyes. She´s completely stock, 100 percent mint (folks drool when they see her, no lie! Send me an e-mail and I´ll happily send you pictures...) and I´m currently debating whether to put a Vetter on her, as I´m using her as a daily commuter.
