id pay around 12k if i had the money... 14k isnt bad though if thats what ur looking for. or just use all that 14k and make ur own hatch. wont be as nice but it will be yours not someone elses

hell yea i would buy that ****...for 12....haha...mostly cuz im cheap...but all the **** on there makes it worth the while. that car has a lot of the stuff i want to do to it...butt........the car is done with...except for internals n stuff...yea...its not fun dude...you dont get to see the progress of the car...find a cheap 96 and start yourself. more fun that way...besides, you deno how the car was treated....could have been raced daily. worn motor, blah blah blah...pre-hooked up cars are a dangerous chance to take....cuz people who know how to hook up cars, know how to drive them to full potential, and what the cars can take...if ur gonna go thru with it...be careful

its a dope *** hatch....but half the fun about imports is seeing progress...i mean i'd love to have that car, but i love my coupe...its fun buying new stuff for it and then throwing it on. oh yeah...14k is a good deal...make sure its not raced out tho

that hatch is bad ***. I wouldnt buy it though because it is all done out. Find a stock ek or slightly modded one and go from there.

Would strongly advise AGAINST buying a swapped car. You have no idea what he's done to it. Great car though.

if i were to buy it. the engine is a 96 and the car is a 98. would it have to be smogg reff here in CA? heard no,because they usually smog ref out of state cars. and was told all you need to do is just smog it. and at the dmv, will they do any visual inspections, like running the serial number of the motor to the vin number?

Its a very clean EK but the 96 engine in a 98 body will give you a lot of headaches
in Cali. Throw in a B.A.R sticker and then I would buy it. But that cant be done. So I say no.
