my plans are pretty much as a daily driver, im only 16, going to be 17 in 2 months, so this kinda car would really be nice for me...as far as racing, i might go to the strip on the weekends sometimes for some good fun...
get it...
car does look nice...I would've die to have a car like that when I was 16...I was rolling on 82 cavalier wagon with chrome roadsters when I was 16...and I was the shiet...man you kids are spoiled these days...
couple concerns...
he probably drove hard with all that upgrades(racing cams and down pipes) and has 120,000 miles...so motor is probably little tired and it's AUTOMATIC...

unfortunately, the seller has decided to keep the car...he had said that if his turbo kit comes in before he sells it he would keep it, and the kit came a few days ago...im mad...i really wanted this car...
now it looks like theres a 95 civic ex in my future...but at least ill be able to give it some good mods...

Hey man, sorry that i'm giving my opinion after the fact that the car is unavailable, but I've been away for a while and this is my first time on the boards in over 2 months. So I'd like to start posting again.
Anyways, I was always told to be very cautious when buying already heavily modified cars. For the most part, people who mod their cars a lot usually drive more aggressively and beat their cars up more than most drivers. So always be extra careful when buying cars like that.
I would also like to encourage you to keep looking into the 240. I'd say personally, I would never pick a civic over my 240...unless it was an SI, which I might consider...barely.
But it is your choice, and you're going to be the one driving it so do whatever makes you happy. Good luck man, and keep us posted on your car purchasing decisions.
