Default The new beginning (EH2) (bad quality warning)

This is my "new" '95 CX, which i purchased for $2500 US. The body of the car is in absolutetly immaculate condition. Only catch was, the car was broken into, stereo was missing, seats were missing, and heater controls were broken. Other than that, the car has 115000miles on it and the motor runs real strong, i was very surprised with the little puny cx.

Here you notice the owner had a nice sticker of a bull, which was a BITCH to take off even with Goo Gone. The fog lights looked alright, what you can't notice is one is completely broken.


Here you can notice that i had to drive the car home on a spare, good thing the owner was nice enough to throw in that import tuner mag so that i can sit on it. Had to drive about 25 miles home through downtown and traffic on the highway with no seat belt and in akward position. Good thing lime tints didn't let anybody see what was happening. Also if you look closely ther is an eight ball shifter ****. The eight ball is of actual size.


This is greatest sticker, as soon as i rolled out of this guy's garage i bought masking tape and taped over the sticker...didn't feel like being pulled over by cops, especially while sitting on a spare.


Here is an overall pic of the car with the crappy rims it had. You can also see the previous owner tried painting the mirrors red to colour match. He did a terrible job, i already repainted them back to flat black, i also took off the mouldings since they were "glued on" style.


This is a shot of the car 5 seconds after i handed the money to the owner. I ripped off the fake red "fuba" antenna which he had glued on.



Sorry for the bad pics, i didn't have my digi cam on me. In fact i found this 1 time useable cam in the car as i was checking it out and the owner let me have it. The car is currently stripped, i had the tar taken out, the tint is off, all the stickers are off, i got vision corners for it, full 98 integra interior, got a stock civic deck in there, fixed the heater, cut off the DTM tips and painted the muffler black for now until i get a motor and a new exhaust setup. Surprisingly it sounds decent. I also took off the stock ex lip and bought a 99 Si lip, but haven't put it on.

I wouldn't, i think the fogs make the car look mean.
