They've become kinda rare. If yours is rust free, fairly nice paint & interior, mechanically sound, etc, it could sell for $3,000 or more... mostly based on the low mileage and it being an unmolested Si. On the other hand, modded EF hatches that go for more than 3k are typically clean AND also have a b-series or maybe a JDM front end, maybe throw in expensive rims, etc etc..

but whatever. It's not a 68 Challenger in clean original condition, it's a 20 year old econo-box. I'm looking forward to seeing your build progress. We need to have a stlhondas EF meet some time.

but who is going to buy it? someone who is looking for one, who knows what theyre wanting, a rust free unmolested EF that will serve as the perfect platform for their next project, someone like, me.

you guys could be right about those who pay the most for original cars want to start their projects with them... I just assumed they were buying them for daily drivers.

I'm curious what new car the old owners bought when they traded this in.

I chuckled a little after reading that.

The car looks really clean and I can't wait to see what you do with it.

And great avatar.

Very nice. Just makes me want to buy an old civic or crx like this. So pretty.
