If you're looking to make profit solely working on Honda's isn't going todo that

I believe that yes that is true. But Its a simple enough start that I would be able to expand from there. Such as Enjuku and Titan. They pretty much focussed on a controlled group and expanded from there. I plan on expanding from there. But want to focus my efforts on the market that would have the most clientele, satisfaction, quickest turn-over rates on parts and instalation now. To be able to speed up the rate of expansion and influence in the area. Everything started with Honda's and blew up, so why not make a mini bomb here? I get what your saying though. Thats just my thinking of it.

I already have a person to do paint and body as well as engine bay shaves and working on wire tucks.

If you think about it, yes there isn't a huge honda scene here, but look how many people from POLK go to the races everywhere else. I think having a shop here thats truly functionable, with great mechanics, awesome builds, new and used even rebuilt parts, including full engines as well as true JDM goody's and rare parts. That would inspire there to be a much bigger Honda scene.

Its up to us as enthusiast to support our local shop as long as they do over and beyond the work expected and the shop to meet the demands beyond the customers expectations. If this works then in theory its up to us to bring the scene instead of going to the scene. As well as monitor it and be responsible for it. Thats why I want to do the shop in our area and hopefully inspire a culture thats already here to surface from under the rocks and be able to have meets at the shop and street race days at our track.
Inspiring
