i just found a 2000 py type r it has 186k all highway first owner had it for 182k then sold it to the kid i wanna buy it from the car is completly stock . i went to see the car and went for a drive and couldnt believe it had 186k on the dash i had to double check after the test ride.. body it in good shape can use some paint interior is a 11 out of 10 and the car drives like 60k on it the guy is asking for 8k .. Let me know if anyone thinks it isnt worth it.

Also i have a 20k mile 01 b18c5 motor and 5 lug i want to put on the r do u think its a good investment ... Remember bone stock

 

why would you put in the same motor and replace an existing 5 lug?

 

because the motor and 5 lug out of my coupe only has 20k on it and the stuff on the r has 186k but it runs great still but i would rather have 20k

 

pics?

 

mileage isn't really THAT important on a honda, is it in NYC? if so then it has see the elements of roadsalt and such. I probably wouldn't offer anything near 8k, probably closer to 6-6500 depending on the body condition and interior.

 

I would ask for a maintenance record too

 

Carfax, not carfox.

 

+1
I have already offered him 6500. He declined.
Body and interior was in pretty decent shape. From what I can recall, I think rusts started to form.

The most I'd pay is about 6800 tops. It's on b20vtec.com.

 

haha

Don't be a typical honda lowballer, yeah it's got high miles but it's all original and you say the interior is as spotless as one off the showroom floor, if the man wants 8,000 pay 8,000 for it (clean title permitting). You have another c5 so the mileage shouldn't even really be that big of a concern. I've seen clean title shells in worse condition go for $5500 and sometimes more at auctions.

 

I don't think I would go much higher, but then again I would have to see it.

 

well it is a clean tittle i havent checked the car fax but it was painted be4 and i havent seen any rust at all

 

thanks i was thinking the same thing untill i went to go see it then i saw it looked like it was well maintained and ran very well and i know its got to be decent the guy wouldnt budge on 8k and i havent got a car fax report on it yet acually

 

?

 

^ must be really good...

 

11/10 means better than perfect, so somehow in that 186k miles the interior became better than brand new . . . but remained stock . . . remember bone stock

 

lol ^

 

gold stitching on the seats sir.

 

^NO! It's been done! I'll have to back out of my gold stitched seat, d-series, custom paint, jdm front ITR build.

 

man, When I bought the civic ex with 23.1mi on the odometer, I already got the interior dirty. I put my lardy butt right in the seat...it got dirty.

 

well back to do u guys think I got a good deal or no???

 

depends on your cash. if anything i would sell the motor and five lug and pick up one with less miles......'

but bump for a good deal

 

here's the deal dude, at 180k it'll never be a collectors piece, so you say it's in good shape? a fresh hone and new rings and replacing a few other failure items might not be a bad idea, either way this would be aligned to be an ITR that you could drive and drive with zero mileage remorse. That's why all of my ITR's have been 100k+ just so I don't sit there and cry every time the odometer rolls the next 1000 miles.

Would I pay 8k for it? not really but if that's what it is worth it to you then I would.

 

i'd buy it and replace all the bushings, those are sure to be worn. other than that throw your swap in and enjoy the caR then either rebuild the stock c5 or sell it to someone who will.

 

I would probably go the route of selling your current swap if the motor in the car is the original and just rebuilding that one instead. Original vins are for teh win.

 

This R is western ct? i think i know the one, looks real clean but i don't really like py:0
