Default QUESTION ON BUYING CRX


ok well about a year ago my friend got the cleanest crx ive ever seen and and sold it for 1500 to his buddy (had no motor) now a year has gone buy and the guy he sold it to is now selling it, when my buddy sold it to him it came with thermal exhaust, konig rims (look like the circuit 8s) zex nitrous system, ground control coilovers, gt steering wheel. and prolly lil more stuff, well he sold the nitrous system, sold the rims, took the coiolvers but put stock si ones on, might of taken the exhaust, sold the steering wheel, and either now has steelies or rims from a 2000 civic. and it has black leather seats with red outline.

the car has no rust at all, clean fresh carpet, shiny paint, GREAT condition w/o motor

he says hes sellin it and to make a good offer

how much should i offer him for it? im guessing 900-1000

Sure?
Someone will flame you and say you are going to overpay and then mention the killer deals everywhere but where you are.
Ask your self this"
Are there many other clean shells around?
Now if you didn't know how much he paid and say it was in the paper would you think it was a fair price?

Either way good luck

800-1000 seems about right for the shell. My buddy got his 92 GSR shell for $250 CDN, no rust and a clean title...can you believe that?

if you are BUYING a shell and want a pristine one right away, you are at the mercy of the market. there just arent a lot of super-clean unmolested shells running around. buy it for the price range you stated and don't look back. a couple hundred bucks is nothing if it is as clean as you say it is and it's local.

if you were SELLING it, well, there aren't all that many people looking for shells either, so having one can be a pain in the *** to unload. figure out how bad he wants it out of his yard, and act accordingly on your opening offer. i'd start at 500 and see how hard he balks. but regardless of the settling price, if it were me i'd end up going home with it at the end of the day.

Keep us posted on what happens.
You can low ball him a little bit though.
All he can say is no.
Good Luck!

i'd start lower- 700 sounds almost like a thousand if you dont remind them how close to 600 it is. you also know just how much he actually has into it, so why let him profit a lot off it?
