please let me know what you guys will pay for the car. i spoke with the guy and he told me a few minor things need to get done before he sells it but all the information is there

 

wow all these views on this thread and no1 can give me a somewhat price or at least tell me something about? whats the point of even putting up a post for other honda people to help out or give an opinion.

 

i would never buy that thing

 

dude I live in south florida as well and there are to may cars like this. don't buy that thing you have no clue who did the motor work and who knows if they knew what they where doing and it looks like a pos

 

I definitely wouldn't buy that car. If I were to consider it, I wouldn't pay more than $1800. He'll say no to that though. Let him part it out if he thinks he can get $3000 that way. I would keep looking, you can find a better hatch.

 

yeah i know what you mean. when i spoke to him he did tell me that a professional shop did the engine work and the shop he told me is a good shop because ive heard it from different people so i know it has to be a good engine job on it. thing is i have been looking for a hatch and basically for almost 2k its not coming with all those parts and theres something either wrong with the car and it needs money put into it or its just stock with a good paint job and maybe IF IM LUCKY its single cam vtec and with an intake n exhaust

 

I would rather drive a stock, clean Civic than that POS, but it's your call, your $2K.

 

ima call him later and see if he can meet up with me so i can look at the car. maybe he will sell it for like 2800

 

find another hatch and compared it, you have a lot of choices.

for 2100obo and needing body work plus it doesnt have that many mod's.... ehhhhh i dont think i would get it since the car i would like to see doesnt need body work but it just needs the cluster to work and the door panels to get installed and the guy said it drives and everything so ima just go take a look at the car and see what i can work out with him


yes i have been comparing i found a stock clean sohc for 2800, another one b16 with exhaust needs body work for 2500 i found a shell that needs a bumper and a paint job for 800

 

I wouldn't pay more than $1800.

 

id for sure buy the second one, i bet you could get that car for 1600... the body itself looks 100x better than the other one.

 

for 3800 i would drive my b16 coupe to you, with the a/c blasting and interior/exterior complete and matching and catch a plane back home. that car isnt worth 1k to me.

 

Dont do it!!! Buy the stock one and work on it lil by lil...

 

He says it was done by professional body shop... does he have reciepts? I wouldn't pay more than 1800 for that car either. It looks like a tweakers special. HAHA. That car isn't worth what he wants.

No but seriously he's trying to sell a car, and on the same ad is cussing out some other forums for doggin' his ****. Doesn't seem like the brightest guy to me.... I think I'd keep lookin'...

I saw probably 6 - 8 cars before I bought mine over the course of 2 months. And I'm glad I did. I ended up giving 4500 for an f20b ek, but I LOVE IT!... So glad I didn't buy any of the other cars I saw at first. It seem to get better and better towards the last 3 I saw.

 

I would go with the secound one too. The first one looks like a pos

 

ugly and TOO expensive 2k MAX

 

i would buy a stock car instead, that car looks really beatup

 

are you looking to do a huge project? perfect

are you wanting to drive it. fail.

im sure there are a ton of better ones around friend.

 

that hatch looks terrible do not buy even for 2k

 

This.

Seriously, anyone who decides its a good idea to call out people talking smack using a craigslist ad is a bit on the questionable side.

 

I have to agree. If you're looking for a project car to keep in the garage, slowly work on on the weekends and such, trickle money into when you get paychecks, etc., this would be a good car. Though $3800 is ridiculous...but he does have a lot of work into it. I'd say mid 2's is a fair market price for this car..it's not clean by any means, but it does have some nice parts on it...for you could probably even part that thing out (ie. fuel injectors, fuel pump, rear seats, interior door panels, etc. and get more "normal" crap going on in that car, may be able to swing a bumper out of it as well. You do that, and you can make up a good chunk of the money you bought the car for. You sure as **** don't need that kind of fuel system on a stock LS, though I would run a regular LS ECU in there unless you load it up with Crome or Neptune or something to verify that the fuelmap/ignition table is good, god knows who tuned it, it has to be modified somewhat because of the injectors).

Though I wouldn't buy it for a daily driver, it seems to need too much work done to it.. That'll likely need to spend a few quality weeks in the garage getting all fixed up before it's 100% for the street. So if you have a reliable second car and wanna pick this up as a project car (hoping to make it a daily sometime in the near future), I'd say go for it, not for his price, though.

 

I wouldn't pay more than 1500 dollars. I always believe that buying a clean stock car is always better than buying something that has been modified by somebody else.

 

did you buy it? that car looks disgusting! i would pay for it at all lol! get a stockish one and fix it up you will be happy in the long run
