Default 92 Acura Vigor Pro's and Cons

I have the chance to buy a 92 vigor for extremely cheap. I am not overly familiar with the everyday driving off it. That weird 5 cylinder makes great power, but is it reliable? The car has lotsa mileage on it but the body is good and it only needs a seat and a rad.

Any input good or bad would be great, the car looks good and I am very interested in it. But buying this would make me sell my other winter beater a 90 teg.

Thanks Again

If it has lots of miles you might want to think twice about it, just my opinion I think they are really nice looking also but check this website to see how much the engine/trans cost.....ouch!!

not to say you can't find one used, good luck which ever way you go.

All their prices are crazy steep.

Like buying any used car try to find out the past history on it. If the previous owner took care of it then you should have a car that will last a long time. The eninge is tuff as nails.

I have had mine Vigor for over 5 years and it still runs like new.
Go this forum where most of the Vigor owners hang out.

My boss has one, 200K+ miles. She has only had to replace the clutch. I cant seem to talk her into selling it to me.

Very similar to my brothers. He bought it new in 92, has 250K+ miles on it and has only replaced the clutch along with the routine maintenance. Awesome car and runs great.
