Default Sell me a damn SI!

Damnit, why won't anyone sell me an SI (I like the driveablity) for cheap (less than 4k). I've been looking for about 2 years now. I'm willing to buy a slightly modded one but I'd much rather do all of that myself so it fits my taste perfectly. This has been a long journey, I just wi5h 1t (poop filter) would end soon!

1. I don't want to have to a do a swap from the start
2. The d16z6 has enough power to be alright until I get something new (I'm going all handling first)
3. As I said before I like the amenities of the Si (sunroof, power everything, although I'd remove the AC)

I live in "Oak Hill" as well but unfortunately go to school in Hicksville, VA (Harrisonburg) so it's hard to car shop.

Get a freakin Wisconsin newspaper and then decide what color you want! It seems like there are a lot of hatches up there.

If anyone is interested in selling one this summer I wouldn't have a problem having someone check the car out, flying to wherever you are and driving cross-country in the car. I think that'd be pretty damned cool.

I have a 92 Si for sale in Cali.

$5500 though... I know it is high, but I paid $6000. The reason for the high price is the difficulty of finding a stock unmodified Si in good shape. All the Si's here are all taken and modified already.

Regardless, let me know if you are interested. Car has no accidents, no salvage, 118K miles, new clutch, timing belt, water pump, calipers, rotors, brake pads, accesory belts, distributor, plugs, tires, etc...

Let me know.
Thanks.

LOL. i did that too when i was looking for a hatch. it didn't work out too well. they never responded and i just ended up giving away my info. but, just keep on looking. it'll come to you soon enough. "patience is a virtue."

Sorry you paid 6k, but 5500 is more than I'm willing to pay for a 92. If it were a 95 it would be a different story. Your market there in Cali works differently as ours on the East Coast, thanks though!
