So I would like to hear from you guys & get your opinions. I can get a 95 ex coup for $500 from a friend. It needs a new engine thats why so cheap. I was thinking of swapping a b16 or a k20.( was quoted 4000 for b swap & 8000 for k swap labor included) The body is in really good shape, just some small rust here & there. The part I want your guys opinion on is should I just buy a newer or brand new car instead of going with the 95 coup.

Thanks in advanced
