Default Bought an EG Today :).... Just saying Hi (Not a n00b :P)

Well Im usually hanging around the FI forums or the Integra forums, but it looks like im forced to talk to you EG guys now since Im an owner of one.

Reason I bought an EG was for daily driving. My Integra is going to get my self killed if I drive it on an everyday basis. (Its almost turbo'ed)


I picked her up for $2,978 and after tax and lincensing it came to $3,313.25
Its a 92 CX BONE STOCK, 151k. It came from an orginal owner in the town I live in.


I bought it from a dealership and the sticker price was $4999.99. I just went in there and broke down to them what the car was worth and that I probably know more about Hondas then the salesman did and sure enough I taught him a thing or two lol.

Anyhow just saying hi! Maybe in the future Ill put a b20 in it just for some extra umphf, but for now, its just a daily driver that gets reved on at every light I stop at heheh Damn Street Racers!

(Pics on the dealers site; probably wont be up much longer)

Clean, but that's pretty expensive for a CX with 151k.

Got my Sedan, IMMACULATE inside and out, 114k for $2,600.

That's b/c yours is a Sedan!

Dunno where the original poster is from, but try looking for a clean hatch for $2600 here in CA!

People scour ads and sub-$3k hatches in good/decent condition are snatched up in a matter of a day or two!

The car is a decent find for $2600. Forget these other guys telling you otherwise. Oh, and welcome!

3k for a 92 151k EG is pretty expensive...but nice nevertheless.... honda's resale value sometimes is rediculous.... but I'd still pay that amount for a EG....just to swap a gd k in it.

I got my 93 cx with a sunroof for $2,300 here in CA.
Nice pick up, price dont mean a thing, your interior is killer
when you stack the integra, throw that motor in your hatch

Easy there Sparky, just stating the obvious. KBB is at $1,755 for that CX, FYI.

kBB is probably only 1,755 from a private seller, i bought this from a dealership with a sticker price of 4999, walking out of there with it for 2978 and the body is PERFECT, and i have the fake pleather, and only one owner; i think i did great... blue blook from a dealer was 3300...

Thanks for the props and for the penny pinches, Im just the same way, but this was "the one" considering ive been looking for over 2 months or so...
