Good deal? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...480417722&rd=1

The only thing that bothers me is that it was stolen for a couple hours. :wtf:

That seems a little risky, might be kinda beat up despite the appearance. That guy also seems pretty dumb due to his lack of spelling skills and poor grammer use. WOW...

And he just comes right out and says "the engine is in good condition". Oh really, and how do we know that? He didnt mention a tune-up or compression test. I don't like dealing with people that seem like they haven't graduated from middle school... I'd say no go cuz the previous owner probably beat the shit out of it and I don't trust the seller to be honest, but it's up to you.

That and it having been stolen almost guarantees he wont get what he wants for it anyhow.

Maybe I'll just wait then. I guess it's not worth the risk.

I would. You might check the F/S rides on this forum, generally people on here tend to take car of their cars more than just random people.

Ahhh good idea, I didn't even know that there was a section for that! I usually would go straight to the integra boards. I'll have to go check that out. The only thing is that is close to where I live. Thanks for the info.

The best resources (imho) for finding used cars are autotrader.com and cars.com, as well as checking the classifieds on forums. That way all the listing does is put you in contact with the seller so you can go meet them and check out the car in the normal manner.

Yea I always check them like a couple times a week. I just found a 97' GSR on autotrader.com with 87,000 miles for $6,000. It's in excellent condition, I'm gonna go check it out on the weekend. Thanks for the tips. :wavey:
