Default [SOLD] 1997 Honda Civic HX Turbo LS/VTEC

I've owned it for approx 15 years, bought in '09 bone stock, and it's done very little driving in the last 10 or so, always garage kept. All parts on it are quality and receipts for most things included (and a few purchased here like the engine https://honda-tech.com/forums/northw...ngine-2888301/). Almost a time capsule in that very little has been done to it in the last 10 years (including being driven more than a couple times a year). Just put a fresh battery in it and a fresh tank of 92 octane, ready to go. Just over 185000 indicated, approx 10k on engine. Freshly tuned by Rich Tuned in Lakewood. Current setup will peak about 15psi with full boost by 5500rpm and makes 365hp/280tq or can easily be turned down. The smaller ball bearing turbo makes it super fast to spool with a ton of midband making it quite fun on the street. Very dailyable and a bit of a sleeper.

Price drop. I just want to add, Honda buyers are the most obnoxious group to sell to on the planet, everyone wants to buy it and disappears. I've thought this was sold several times now and then crickets when it comes time to actually finish the transaction lol... Someone show up with some cash and take this thing already.

This is why I haven't sold any of mine over the years... I just don't have the stomach to deal with crazy silly people. Good luck with your sale.
