If it hasn't gotten into an accident, and it's under 60,000km i'd take it.

Make sure you find out about that accident.. you know how Honda drivers are. Last time I was shopping for a used Civic for my bro's gf, all 8 cars that I called cause i thought it was a good deal, got into an accident each...

Check it out, and if it's clean, it would be a decent investment.

yeah if good mileage and no accidents then go for it, s2k is like my dream car

even if it got into an accident and the car looks fine externally there could be
things you can't see, cause my friend bought a used civic, and found out that some
parts of the steel frame are bent and stuff

I'm sorry but I have no idea what your saying here - this car was in an accident??? and it has how many km's on it? 38,000 or 48,000 - and by chance when did your friend see it??? cause its only been posted for 7 days...and if your friend has the VIN number I'd take it to run it cause the guy i called about this gave me the number and it was clean .....

so i went to the dealership last night here in KW to look at the 2003 Eclipse ...4 models going from the RS, GS, GT and GT Premium ...GT and Premium have a V6 and tons of other crap .....but are about $32,000 to $36,000 - however the RS and Gs are about $23,000 and $28,000.....so If I trade in my Vic I may get one of the lower end ones and then do a couple mods for show....4 bager puts out 147 hp and V6 is 200 hp...not really looking for a fast car but a nice car at a good price .....any opinions on this??? Good idea?? Going for a test drive on Monday ....

well went to the dealership last night to look at a Misu Eclipse ....and wow what a car - very nimble and fast, shifts very quick and weights a lot less than most cars with 200 hp......17 inch rims come stock......all in all was a very nice test drive ...now for the bad news, it cost $34,200 for the GT Premium with 5 speed manual ......and I haven't checked but my insurance will probably go up ..... i got some pics I'll post when i get home ....still thinking, not sure if I want to get it

IMO, if you're getting an Eclipse... don't get the 4-banger. Or else, you'll be on the same level as our civics. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG] Might as well get the Si or the 2000 SiR...
