Default CRX on ebay.. too much??

Interested in buying a CRX..came across this one.. looked interesting.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1832630464

I have talked to some people and most of them have said they wouldnt pay this much for a CRX. It has alot of miles on the body and what not.

so is 5-6k for this car really that bad of a deal? I want the car. Looks clean and its just what i want..

has anyone seen this thing in person?

any help is appreciated. Thanks.

That crx has a b16 swap... those arnt cheap.. if it was just a plain crx with 250 k miles i wouldnt buy it... if u could get that for around 5 it would be a steal.. if the engine was done right.

i bought mine for 7000 cdn and stock. But i did want a car i knew entire history on and babied with new paint etc.

Not a bad deal but I understand in the states theree are a lot of hybrid EF"s in canada it is hard to find a stock EF of any class............

If you wanted everything that he has(color,wheels, etc), 5k isn't that bad. But I perfer to build my own car and even spend a little more. As building the car is part of the fun of being in this hobby/sport

Hey if you can get a turbo ZC like mine for $5000 bucks with a fully built engine from endyn, zdyne and shitload of gauges, drag radials and other misc, good expensive parts, its worth it. That thing on ebay shouldn't be worht more than $3000.

This is a very clean CRX, and all but IMO I think you would be happier if you went ahead and built a CRX yourself. THe pride of Knowing you bulit it is such a good feeling. If you buy a car that has been modded then you are kind of just showing off what others have done. Not what you have done. Again I think you should buy a CRX and build it from ground zero to what you want!!!!Just my feelings on buying a modded car.

nobody's getting ripped off for 5K; b16 plus CRX value plus extras, prob 5 grand; if his reserve is like 6K or something maybe not. also, you guys gotta remember not everyone knows how to swap themselves and to buy a CRX and pay to get the B16 in is gonna be more than 5K; however they're still good performance bargains compared to other cars.
look at this CRX:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=1833166271

someone paid 5700 for that b16, but it has less miles, and lots of suspension stuff, GSR brakes, CF hood, alarm, etc. probably a pretty good buy
