Default Looking for a first crx, what do you guyys think about this one?

I would pay 2k for it. but I would also strip the interior completely and probably make it a track car project to invest my extra money into.

Bad news guys. I E-mailed the seller and she said that it a had been rear-ended and had a salvage title. Guess I'll keep looking, but I think I might test drive it anyway.

i dont know US laws regarding salvage titles, but it looks straight in the rear, properly fixed..

sounds like an easy way to get it for 1k or less!

accident warranting salvage title.
not so well-done new paint.

I have purchased two CRX's with clean titles for less than one fourth of that cost. Tell that bitch it's a no go unless they drop the price AT LEAST a grand.

It's got new paint....that should tell you something. And it's got rust poking out of the rear fenders. Can't you see it in the pics?
