CIVIC X3 04-01-2006 09:55 PM

does it have a clean title?

djrabbi 04-01-2006 10:06 PM

i has 89000 miles and its still under warranty soo im kinda hesitating..... but my pops is like if u want this car.... u gotta pay for all of it.... but im also lookin into a 3 series, C class, RSX....

Quantas 04-01-2006 10:06 PM

thats quite resonable for the IS, and its a good car too, my dad has a red one, btw, is it 5 speed?

djrabbi 04-01-2006 10:07 PM

naaaa auto.... im not gonna be racin it unless a civic pulls up next to me ahahah just kiddin

MajinB 04-01-2006 10:07 PM

if you are partin out. pm me with what you are sellin. thanx...

DDragon7 04-01-2006 10:09 PM

I say get it, it looks really good, and comes with some mods. And its more reliable then the 3 series, the C class and on par with RSX or better.

MajinB 04-01-2006 10:11 PM

offer him 12. modded=less value

gearbox 04-01-2006 10:14 PM

something isn't right. the mods alone are prolly worth 15k. it must have a ton of miles or salvage title.

djrabbi 04-01-2006 10:34 PM

yea 89000 and hes gettin back to me bout the VIN.... soo hope all goes well

lewal 04-01-2006 10:52 PM

RHCP0801 04-02-2006 04:13 PM

seems to good to be true

ramcosca 04-02-2006 04:31 PM

$15,000? WTF? I want it! My DX cost me $17,000!!!

I say, I say. Get it, but don't leave us.

Curiouz_G 04-02-2006 05:27 PM

well your a honda and a lexus cant be compared...and your dx prob had less than 30 miles when your brought it if you got it for 17,000. the IS car has 89,000 on it lol. personally id go for a e46 or if you can e90. they're such nice cars.

ramcosca 04-02-2006 05:49 PM

No he isn't. All those issues associated with the vin...that kind of car all fixed up. The owner had to have driven it hard once in a while if not all the time. I'd say you're spending $15k on a lot of potential problems.
There are times when you find a great car for a great price. Is this one of them? I don't know.
Good luck with it. It's definitely a sweet car.

scansel912 04-02-2006 06:46 PM

I personally would never buy a modded car, It just makes me think it's had the shit beat out of it you know.

CIVIC X3 04-02-2006 07:43 PM

i second that...and especially it has 89,000 miles...why would a guy modd and not race...and the vin doesnt seem to come out clean either...idk man...

djrabbi 04-02-2006 09:05 PM

yeaa its a sweet car, but like u guys said i dont want any problems soo im like iffy, but i also saw a RSX type S for 16 at a local dealer... im gonna see if the guy is willin to take my car for a straight up tradee

RHCP0801 04-02-2006 09:10 PM

i doubt you will get it for a trade, you might have to pay a few thousand also

djrabbi 04-02-2006 09:14 PM

i went to the honda dealer to ask for a trade, they say they give me 15,500... only cause i bought it from them

diskreet 04-02-2006 09:18 PM

Lets face it, a lot of us who modify our cars are very hard on them. Not abusive, but we drive our civics hard.

IDK man. That's a hard choice for me, although I love the DC5. The IS is still a Toyota, you know. Will last as long as any Honda would. Kinda difficult, this choice.

djrabbi 04-04-2006 11:04 PM

I SHOULDVE NEVER GOT A CIVIC, no offense.... but my dad thought he was gonna suprise me wit a lexus, but got me a civic..... haah but i like the civic its niceee but sloww

VTEK2k2 04-04-2006 11:14 PM

which acura dealership is it. dont worry im not trying to steal it, i dont have any money

zachgeyer 04-04-2006 11:19 PM

get it

Devani 04-05-2006 08:29 AM

it looks like Park Ave...right..? or is it Ramsey...

hold on if you are getting the RSX.....

djrabbi 04-07-2006 07:49 PM

soo i went to a dealer where there was RSX in maywood..... i ask the guy and he just completely ignores me, hes like welllll bring your dad in and some with a serious offer..... my offer was a straight trade.... its heavily modded RSX and they were askin 15,XXX..... fvckin bastards

lewal 04-12-2006 02:01 AM

^^
Yeah, dealers are *******s... Good to hear you're really thinking all this through. Although I LOVE the IS, what you stated about it definitely would make me think twice (if I were in your place). But note, 15 reports doesn't necessarily mean anything, cuz a lot of times reports are for minor stuff like change of owners, and check ups and what not. See what exactly the 15 reports were for... assuming you're still contemplating it.

sil04ver 04-12-2006 09:15 AM

As soon as I get my car paid off in about a year, I'll be going RSX. DO IT! I cant wait to finally be happy with my car haha.

eye_see_you 04-12-2006 09:32 AM

I parted my civic back out to stock , ripped the turbo off and gave the dealer 1000 plus my honda for my rsx-s but mine is ABP I say jump on it man I love mine
