well i guess for 2000 you cant be too picky, thats not a quick motor or anything but the cx is a great shell to start off with. you can always do the swap later. it's good to be able to piece it together while it's out of the car anyway. how bad does it look?<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by YoungGun &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">basically this guy is selling a 1992 cx hatch for 2,000 and its got intake,b15 vtec,leather seats, but the only thing is that the car is primered and it has bondo on it. what do you guys think. is the d15 fast </TD></TR></TABLE>

well the car is primered. The front end is all done with primer white. but after the front end the car is primered gray. and has some bondo spots. all the dents are taken out.

Slightly higher compression than the USDM z6. It is rated a tad higher...anything noticeable though?...no

If the car is in good shape, I'd say take it. You can swap the motor if you like, as I am a little biased(B-Series), but it all depends on how fast you want to go.

Short answer: Take the car
