Default Is this car worth what he wants?

sorry for posting a 1992 civic si in this section but i couldent find 1990-2000 or w/e if there even is one.

he is wanting 3675$ for it. and im wondering if its worth it, im emailing him right now to ask what the milage is and if its standard or auto (im guessing stand).

Possibly the nicest in town!! Thousands spent on performance upgrades and updates, including: Bomex Bonneville body kit (1300.00), upgraded spoiler (300.00), ROH Australian-made alloys with Riken tires (800.00), one piece clear projection-style headlights (400.00), Panasonic sound and amp, chromed air intake and K, KS cat back stainless steel exhaust system (350.00), Munroe gas shocks and independent adjustable-height suspension (800.00)... Body superb, mechanically flawless, interior perfect, excellent mileage for year. Very quick and responsive and it will be sad to see it go, but i am off to europe..... Please email or call ********* after 5pm or on weekends. More pics available on request if emailing from out of town.

Would I pay that much for it? Nope.. way too many undesirable features (body kit, wheels, spoiler, etc) to be worth the asking price. Even low mileage and stock I wouldn't pay that much for it.


Would you pay that much for it? That's the real question.

So the other ones in town are either more money or stock? If you like that style then yes its a good deal. I would take the side skirts and rear bumper for stock and sell that and the rims. Good deal though if mechanically sound

Hell no. All these mods can be found on ebay for a fraction of the prices he's listing. Sombody hustled this poor guy and now he thinks he has a "high performance" civic

a frost white SI is rare, so the price is ok as long as there is no rust (in my eyes) you could sell the wing for a decent amount, the side skirts, rear bumper and headlights are easy to find/replace.

no, what he did to the car killed it...even if it is real Bomex skirts, bumper, and wing.
but being frost white makes it rare...i know cause i traded my 00 em1 straight up for a 94 frost white w/ 220k

I'd say it's steep (and ugly imo). Maybe 1k less...but for me, more like 2500 max.

i would say 2500 max too, and thats if he still has all the stock stuff to convert it back to normal, normally i ask if they will take money off if they take stuff off like the wheels, i can find a set of steelies or something to get it around to i get something nicer
