Default need advice for purchase

hey guys. i have a 94 accord coupe that i'm thinking of selling. i want to get this del sol i saw. well i havn't seen it yet, but i'm gonna go check it out monday probably. its a '94 del sol with 130K for $1300. what do you guys think? of course i'll have a mechanic check it out and everything first but if everything is clear, you guys think its a good deal? if i do get it, you guys will see a lot of posts from me because it'll be my first civic/delsol.

any input is appriciated.

That sounds a little too good to be true. Don't waste your time with a del SLO. You might as well keep your Accord coupe and swap an H22A+turbo. My opinion is that the del sol is too heavy for it's small size and is a girl car. Too cute for me, but hey, I own a hatchback and most people think that's an ugly car too, so whatever floats your boat.

yea, i'm gonna check the title and test drive and all that tomorrow or monday. i was planning on keeping my accord and swappin in an h22, but the accord's just giving me too many problems. so i wanna start with a new car. the sol has 130K, which is pretty high, but i say for $1300, that is still a really good price right? and i was thinkin about swapin in a b18c1 gsr into the sol and maybe turbo. not sure. if anyone has an unlimited carfax account, let me know.

my other option is a '95 integra with 100K. $4600. i could probably get the guy down to $4000. or possibly even lower. and another option is $5000 for a '95 prelude. but i mean if i can get a sol for $1300 and its legit, i think i would rather save all that 2000-3000 and work on the sol. imputs welcome.
