Decent price

Have the wheels been cheaply resprayed? Cuz they painted right over the wheel weights. Have fun rebalancing them and being left with a bad unpainted spot underneath

I know right. 2/10 would not bang [shift]

The blue ITR that pops up every now and then. Sitting on slipstreams with winters.
The owner has parts and labour lined up ready to go but opts to store it in the garage... wat.

Inb4 track car comments.

whats the one with the mugen front bumper and sides on it before... the car got into an accident on the front driver side where the bumper was damaged and replaced with OEM, the hood is new from seibon since the old one was damaged during the accident as well and was unrepairable. the front driver side apron was repaired during the accident... the reason for the mugen sides not to be on the car right now is because its damaged and was unable to be repaired so OEM was ordered and painted

This is what it used to look like

Why would anyone buy that for 11k as a track car when you could buy this one for $6500 1995 JDM Integra Type-R

Or this one for $7500 2000 Acura Integra Type-R (Phoenix Yellow)

Or this one for $10,000 Jdm 96 Spec Honda Integra type R

That guy needs a reality check. Spoon parts or not, a repainted accident car with visible rust is NOT worth the sum of its parts

Seller is on RS for sure, mentioned that test drives were available at the RS meet if serious. Probably saw the ITR thread and took his ad down

Honestly, I forget about this generation of Miata a lot. I rarely see anyone tinker with them around here. Hell, I've never even been in one before. Its cool to see these are also entering the under 10k range. Hopefully more people start doing something with them.

IMO, NC Miata is the single most neglected and overlooked generation in the Miata game, and as such, they are a phenomenal value. Aftermarket support is not quite a strong as the first 2 gens, and now that the ND is out, it isn't the latest and greatest version out there either. But by all measures, even though its aftermarket support is smaller than NA/NB, it literally still has *everything*. Relatively cheap engine swaps are available, and they can make the car very fast.

2007 328i BMW 79,500 kms

No accidents, 79500km, $8,200

PRICE DROP! JDM RHD 1999 Honda Accord SiR wagon - mint, rare, fast

Not sure if this qualifies as a good buy but definitely interesting. Manual would probably seal the deal for me, hah.

Spoiler!

I recall the older version of this ad says this has a transmission issues.

2003 Honda Civic Si Coupe (Manual)

Selling my 2003 Honda Civic Si
It's a two-door coupe with a 5-speed manual transmission. Clutch is good.
Meticulously maintained - not a single thing is broken. I've owned this car since 2008 and have almost every receipt from work done.

Features (all working):
- air conditioning;
- electric locks, remote entry;
- power windows and sunroof;
- cruise control; and
- heated mirrors.

Maintenance includes:
- Takata airbag recall done - both inflators replaced.
- New head gasket (at Carter Honda) earlier this summer at great expense. Replaced it as soon as I noticed a problem. No engine damage. I have the receipt. This is a common problem on the 1.7 engine in this car, but it will now last another 180,000 km.
- Water pump and timing belt done at about 150,000 km (I have the receipt).
- Engine mount replaced.
- Front struts replaced a few years ago (Monroe stuts with lifetime warranty).
- New 4-season Optimo 4S (mud and snow rated) tires last summer. Still plenty of tread.
- Four wheel alignment at same time as tires (drives straight as an arrow).

Everything is stock. No lowering, no intakes, no garbage.

I am a car enthusiast and I've treated this car with care. I've fixed everything that's broken on it over the years and I can go into agonizing detail about every repair. I've bought a new car, so this has to go. Inspections and test drives welcome (assuming you can drive a manual).

There are three minor accidents and a comprehensive claim since I've owned it:
- two rear-enders (rear bumper replaced once, fixed once);
- one front driver's side impact (cut off in an intersection) - one headlight and front bumper replaced;
- kids threw rocks from a balcony onto the car (seriously). Roof and trunk lid repainted, rear and front windows replaced.

Absolutely no frame, mechanical or engine damage ever.

I am pretty firm on the price - I think it's very fair considering the maintenance I've done, especially recently.

Call or text Chris with the information above. I can show the car most evenings after 7 and on weekends.

This isn't strictly a comment about this particular EM2 shown above, but as a previous owner of an ES1 Civic, I am highly skeptical of any 01-03 EM2 / ES1 Civics. Honda really didn't do a good job on those years of the car, and there are numerous common and well known problems with them. To just name a few, you have failing engine mounts, weak front shocks, problematic air bag sensors, problematic seat belt buckles, slipping automatic transmissions, etc. These problems didn't get fixed until the 04 facelift, and the 04-05 cars are very solid.

Personally, unless the price reflects this significantly poorer reliability, I'd stay away from the 01-03 Civics in general, and opt for the 04-05 cars instead.

2000 Toyota Celica GTS, low kms, clean

106k km, 6spd, clean title, $5,000

Claims to be an enthusiast but he puts Monroe struts on his car?? Yup, those are the ones everyone on the enthusiast forums is raving about! Even if he was on a budget and put Racelands on the thing it would say more for his enthusiasm (never mind the lack of money...)
