I viewed it last year in the summer prior to purchasing my VR6 and he was asking for 3,300. It had a rusty exhaust with a big hole in it (he claimed to have fixed it after), ripped CV joints (knocking when turning), ABS light illuminated, moderate amount of rust, and some kinda alarm immobilizer issue.

He wouldn't budge on a few hundreds dollars off the asking price after I listed all the issues. Main issue was that he listed that it passed air care at the that time, however it never did. So just a heads up on what your looking at based on my perspective and experience with the owner and car.

how was the engine? and how bad was the rust
things you listed arent big issues
i emailed him an hour ago but we'll see

Engine ran smoothly and the rust was on the rear wheel arc and at the end of the rockers. It wasnt too severe tho if i remember correctly.

I know those issues aren't big, but I was trying to knock like 200-300 off (when it was priced at 3.3k) for the repairs but he wouldn't budge. Then as I was about purchase it, I found out that it failed air care (keep in mind this was last summer when aircare was still required) so I backed away because the car would have just sat until December if I had purchased it.

I love paradise green on integras! Should be a decent buy for 2.5k, another $500 into it and it'll be fine

edit: Reading the one picture in the ad it was some kind of u-build prototype, so basically it's a Chevy powered kit car from 1997 nobody has ever heard of. I'd still like to know what it's registered as though.

edit 2: You can read the pic better on Kijiji, where it's listed as a 96 http://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/d...ationFlag=true

I'm tempted to email this owner. If the car is in good shape, I would drop the K motor from my 92 into this shell.

Must refrain myself....

Edit....

I failed. I emailed the owner.
