remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

Well I went to see it today at my g/fs work (her co-worker is selling it). It's in decent shape. The interior is really clean except the mods he's done like sunpro tach (BOO) and bolted his sub volume control on the front of the glove box. No tears.



210,000km's (130,000 miles)
mint looking engine (no oil at all)
neuspeed 1.5" drop w/ stock struts) oem springs included
aem cai (rice rice baby)w/ air bypass
front blitz bumper (???) (2 stock bumpers included as well)
clean intrior
5speed
DX model (TB faces up?)
brakes just serviced
runs mint. He let it idle for the 30min we were talkin, no hiccups. fan works too! :)
no a/c (GOOD, lol)
a little rust on the rear fender area.
hood could be replaced (rusted alot on the bottom, top is 70% ok)

Extra parts:
1 headlight (new)
1 front fender (two on there are ok)
stock springs
2 oem bumpers already colour matched

asking $4500cdn obo, OR $1000 + take over payments(unsure of balance of now).

im not willing to offer anymore then $3500 (black book = $3500 for a poor condition. which i would say it would fall under.)

what do you guys think?

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

this is a ek hatch i presume?

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

Pretty good price if it's an EK hatch and a dx model. What year is it? I assume it's a 96-98 with the ugly front ends.

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

with out us seeing it, I would say buy it. it sounds ok...

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

doh! ya its a 96 DX Hatch. Red (bling bling stan). It's got some homo front bumper.

the 2 red oem bumpers will fit it he said. But will a CTR lip fit on that? or just get the 99-00 Si(r) front bumper?

I couldnt believe how much room there is in the engine bay of that thing compared to my rex, i was amazed.

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

the CTR lip should fit fine

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

so u gonna buy it then??

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

possibly.. still alot of talking to do. he originally said $4500, yah right!

he has a loan to pay off and he's looking into the legalities of it. Also gotta check insurance rates too.

that and the GF (yes this will be her car) has to learn how to drive stick! (good lord help me, lol)

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

u cant just get the 99 front bumper, you have to change the whole front clip.

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

then screw that. lol

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

just the bumper fenders and the headlights i thought.....

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

and then at the end you posted

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

decent shape was my opinion on the car.

black book (us blue book?) value would be under POOR due to the high milage (210km's).

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

Pics?

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

dude, isn't $3500 in canadia like three bucks here? I sold my hatch for a somewhere areound there but in US dollars. if you can get it do it, there's always fixability.

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

nope, the hood too

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

nothing wrong with a sunpro tach, I'm representing sunpro with my tach.

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

in the US we have a black book too, I should know I sold one :P

But 3500 canadian sounds pretty cool, or just offer him/her 500 cash and take over payments

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

That's exactly what I'm planning on, and then going to the bank and paying it off. lol

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

Sounds good and keep us posted.


Instead of making a new thread, all this canadian civic stuff reminded me of something. One day I drove out to a little private dealership to check out a civic, there they had a 98 Civic 'Si' yep he had the canadian model and was selling it like it was some super duper thing, I was arguing with him about it and stuff, but he kept pointing to the trunk and saying "Si Si" Not yes in spanish, the letters S and I :P And yes he was mexican. They had some beat cars there, the one I was looking at was an 92 civic hatch that was just bought from the auction and was a theft recovery. Yeah a dealer was selling cars that are theft recovery and leaving it as they got it without fixing it.

Well there goes my story. To sum it all up, canadians are messing up the US market :P jus kidding, sure would have been nice to own a 98 Civic Si though, I wonder what it would say on the title when it gets registered.

Re:remember that hatch i was asking about.
 

I thought I had a Sunpro.. Mine's a Suntune!.. WTF is that?
