Great price?

Looks to good to be true..

 

all you are paying him to do is basically bring a salvaged jdm itr to the us. its not registered or anything.

 

Sounds a bit shady to me..

 

"Real JDM Integra Type R , B18C5, DC2 "

Whats wrong with that statement??????

 

The reason they do that is to attract buyers, when people use the search function on ebay and just type in B18C5, this ad will come up. That is the reason.

 

Not a big ITR guy but, it's not called the c5 in JP is it?

Just c right?

 

right.

 

sounds reasonable, it's a 96 spec.

 

I thought it was B18C-R?

 

that's a rip off. 96 spec for 15,000??? last time i went to Japan I could have picked up a champ white 98 spec with 34000 km for 11,000 US dollars and that would be shipped. some people really don't know the market value of these cars in japan. they are cheap, because honda is a small time company in Japan.if ur gonna spend 15,000 on that 96 your money would be better spent on a hybrid hatch or a bike.

 

Honda recently become the second largest in japan. Not quite small time imho. Its just that 85% of their sales occur in North America. Their presence in Japan isnt all that big, but they are a large company. 7th largest car manufacturer, and the smallest singly owned car company.

 

notice how i said small time in japan. nissan and toyota's own that market, which is why when selling used hondas in japan, the price is very low. everyone do your homework before you blow all ur cash and make some other guy rich.just a heads up

 

True that, but I wanted people to understand where Honda sits as far as the global economy goes. Parts/Cars are far cheaper than here. Even in singapore car parts (cars are expensive due to taxes and such) are ridiculously cheap. Read Toda Spec A/B/C for 600-650 US. Gonna definately go broke this christmas..

 

will do

 

I'll bet that ITR had a turbo kit installed before.

The grill is cut for an intercooler.

 

It's missing a shift ****, I wouldn't buy it...

 

hehe

 

Is that the airbag in front of the passenger seat?

 

actually, i wouldnt pay him for that.

what a shitty car for a too high of a price.

 

But it's RHD, you could be the local stunna in that car.

 

'

no its not.

if it was DOT ready and 50 state legal for the DMV to register i'd say 15k is not a bad price.

the fact that it is not, makes it a VERY high price. thats like 23k for a 96 salvaged car thats been hacked up....if the seller knew what happened to the car, thats fine, but it looks like someone cut the front for a FMIC ...then removed it for some reason.

 

JDM Front end is like $2k-3k. Seats are another $1k, RHD conversion a few grand, JDM header $400, Misc JDM parts $1k-2k. You are not paying for a 96 Integra, you are paying for the JDM. It even says so in the ad! Im guessing the winner of the auction will turn this car into a show car, because it has everything JDM. It would be so much cheaper to get this car, than to convert a USDM Integra to JDM spec. Think about it people

 

Or, you could buy it strip it and sell the parts.

 

The header isn't worth 400, it's 96 spec.

 

why buy a full car for 15,000 and part it out, when most of the money is in the front clip???? Front clip is 5,500 - 6,000 pick up, so why would you pay three times that for a chassis that can only be sold for around 3,000 as a track only???
