Civic Question
Me and my cousin went shopping around for a car for him. He was planning on getting a used GSR, but then we saw a add in the paper for a civic, i didnt read it that well but its a 92-95 civic. It had a pic of the hood open and it had a swap, either a b16 or a b18(couldnt tell didnt say). It also said it had Good interior and original paint was still in good shape. The car is priced at $6000.00 .We called him and he said he wouldnt sell it for less then the asking price( when i called him i forgot to ask him if it was a b16 or b18, Now i cant call him till about wednesday he said he was going out of town) The guy lives about 45 min. from were we live. Is this a good deal, to high or what? We might go test drive it, in a couple a days.

Re: Civic Question (GSR)
How many miles did it have? Just my personal opinion, but i would stay away from civics that have already had major modifications like that unless you know what to look for. I'm not saying you should not look at any, but I would just worry about the care that went into the swap. Just becareful, that's all. The price sounds reasonable btw.

Re: Civic Question (onefastcx)
Yea dude... you dont want to get something that someone else has already driven hard and ragged out. 6k sounds a little high if its got a b16 with no mods or anything anyway...
