think im gonna sell my car & engine
i want something with lower miles, probably a 99-01 gs-r yeah i know you're probably thinking i mean 98-01.... maybe but i figured 5 years is the oldest i want to go....
might also look into some jetta 1.8t's or VR6's (puttin on my flame suit now...)
kinda lost my steam on my engine build so if i can get enough for my stuff, ill sell it.... and if i can get enough for the car, ill sell it too..... want something newer with lower miles :happysad:

Lower miles mean jackshit, it's all about how you treat the car.
My car runs and drives new, and is in the process of pretty much a full cosmetic restoration. It has 141K on it. My buddy has a 1995 Civic with 200,000 miles on it, original motor. It feels brand new and drives better than some 2003 Civics I've driven with 13K on it that were beaten to shit.
I don't understand you n00bs and you're mileage fettish. With a Honda/Acura, if you keep up on it, it makes no difference.
And if you dare even look at pile of shit VW's, which have about a 50% chance of being a mechanical nightmare and random shit just breaks, I will personally fly back to my old hometown of Utica and slice your throat.

I didnt look at the odometer twice when I bought my CRX, if it had 150,000 or 200,000 would have barely made a difference to me. I figured because some older lady had it it hasn't been beat to shit. What exactly is "beating" a car.

didnt matter to me, the car had 199k when i bought it.... but it is inevitable, a car with high miles is gonna start to need stuff replaced.... and id just as soon buy a newer, lower mile car that is going to last me longer, thats all... if you guys all like high mile cars so much, here is mine for you....
