Seems fishy to me.

usually if something is too good to be true, it is. But... if it's not, then yes it's a great deal. Check everything you can think of to cover your back legally.

He is from Chicago. It could be a rust bucket.

If those are slipstreams then consider my miles davis. Seriously dude you need to seriously check out this ride. Not by pictures, go there and inspect everything and anything. Know how often people lie about parts just to put the value of their junk up?

he said that these are the old rims, he is giving me the choice between these and the slips. i have a lot more pics of the car and it does have those parts, i will post them later. i am going to check it out for sure before i buy it.

dude.. if it has all those parts the dude probably has pushed the **** out of that car. i mean like driving wise. reliability could def be an issue. theres no way to tell over the internet for real though.. you gotta listen to the engine, smell the oil, check the exhaust for rust.. look at all the underside parts.. check the compression.. lol i would really do a good ol mechanic's rundown if he's selling all that for 4k. theres that chance it could all be crap.. but theres also one that youre getting a hell of a deal.

That's not a bad deal at all, if it's a clean title that is. Salvage title, that's simply not worth it. It's not a fantastically good deal--I'm selling a B18C1 del Sol with some similar mods and other stuff for the same price.

If it's a '94, check the roof seals (if it's a '95 it has the updated ones so no worries). Make sure the power windows work, especially the rear one.

I would talk to the guy and see what's up with the car. There are a lot of internal engine mods...which is great if the dude knew what he was doing, and terrible if not.

btw, I've driven a del Sol with Integra seats, and imo they are way too high. I like the low and slim Sol seats. That's personal preference though, so go and check it out yourself.

Damn, I missed that. The Sol's steering wheel really doesn't have a lot of height adjustment in it, so the seats are higher up, you may not be able to get the wheel into a comfortable position.

Personally I like the wheel buried in my lap so it probably wouldn't bug me, but it seems like everyone who drives my car futzes with the seat & wheel position so I guess others might not like being unable to put it up.
