I didn't know they made an Si in 97... ah well, just general tips when buying anything used, make sure it isn't worn to ****, everything you need for the install is included, and make sure you're getting a helluva deal.

Sorry about that, I mean this car is the Canadian SI...so that would be the US EX..

So any other tips when buying a used shortshifter?

Does look weak,cracks,treads good?,etc.
Ask why they are selling it **** if it is a good price buy it and then sell it.
