Default My First Honda!!! Pics inside!

Heres my first honda ever. i'm making the transition over into the Honda World from the Volkswagen World. i got this car off of a guy on this forum actually. so some of u might recognize it. heres whats done to the car (taken from the dude's for sale post, since i dont even have it yet.) i'm going down to North Carolina from PA to get it next weekend. needless to say, i can't wait for the ride home!!

"1992 Honda Civic Si
Blackish Purple (Rare Factory Color)
5Spd.
158,000 miles
1.6L SOHC Vtec

30+ MPG

Power Steering
A/C (Ice Cold)
Cruise Control
Sunroof
4 Wheel Disc Brakes
16" Rota Circuit 8's Bronze (No Marks, like new)
New Tires less than 2,000 miles (Kuhmo 711)
New Brake Pads
Energy Suspension Master Kit
Tokico Illumina 5-Way Adjustable Shocks
Progressive Lowering Springs
AEM Cold Air Intake
Tsudo Catback Exhaust
Pioneer CD Player
(2)-10" Rockford Fosgate Subs
Custom Sparetire built Sub Box
JBL Amp

The Interior of the vehicle is in mint condition looks a year old rather then 13 years old. The outside is in good contion for the year. The hood and front bumper are both brand new just unpainted. They need to be painted. On the roof there is a small area that has alittle fading. But other then that the outside looks awesome.

The car runs and drives great. You would never know the car has 158,000 miles. It handles around turns like no other car I have driven. It is almost unreal.

The engine starts up everytime and makes NO noise. It is is very quiet. Very tight motor, does not burn any oil. The drivetrain is in mint conditon...

I dont know what really to say but the car is in awesome condition. It just needs those few cosmetic areas painted. (Hood, Bumper)"

Heres a few pics. To those more experienced then me, that is a Vtec motor in the bay right? i dont see the actual word "Vtec". i dont know much, but i want to be sure i'm not getting ripped.

yes it is the vtec engine. the ex and si both came with the vtec(d16z6).

How much did you pay for your car?

and this is the wrong forum, and remember to always use search before you post.

Sorry if i posted this in the wrong place. like i said, i'm new to this forum, so it won't happen again. yeah, when i saw the color, i was like "wow, purplish black, thats not so rare". and i asked the dude about it and he said it was rare to see a hatch in that color. once again, i'm no honda pro (yet), but i thought about it, and i havnt seen many hatches that color, so, whatever. its a nice color, and i'm very happy with it. i paid 3100 for it by the way. Sorry again for posting in the wrong place. thanx for the praise for those who gave some, and HELLO EVERYONE! HONDA YAYYYYYYYYYY! NO MORE JETTA FOR ME! lol. i'll have to change my Sig.
