nope, no deal. To many miles, for that price Id want a perfect generally rust free body/floor

I dont personally care for interior except the dash and seats

But thats about 800 more than Id pay for the car, says 2500, work with him to 1700 or walk

i think thats too much even for a si.
with 140xxx miles thats too much.
if it you were able to get it for maby $1,500
that would be more reasonable.

HF eh......

If hes asking 2500 I dont think hell cut in half

Make sure you point out some good flaws if you wanna rip into the cut that much

Get on the ground and check out the floors

Also, bring a magnet and something to cover it, go over the rear quarters and just infront of the rear tires at the bottom with the magnet

If it doesnt stick well, YOUVE GOT BONDO!

haha, i know where your talking about. i live pretty close to there.

^^ yes, make sure you point out the major flaws to the owner and try and make it seem like the car is a POS if you wanna get it for that price.
also if i were you, i would bring him a print out of http://www.kbb.com (kelly blue book)

he's saying the truth.
I bought my yellow 90 CRX Si approximately 1.5 years ago for $3,400. At the time, it had 109,000miles, clean body and interior, No stereo.
