Anyone interested in swaps for my fto. i am looking for something a little more fuel efficient. i have had it for almost 5 yrs now and it is in perfect mechanical condition. it has its flaws but nothing major. it is a 1994 with 107,000 on the clock. show me what you got ;)

Edit: it is a 1994 gpx mivec tiptronic


pros: aftermarket 18in rims, loud twin exhaust, sub wih amp, serviced every 5000k's, reliable and have had no problems in 5yrs. + many many more

cons: roof rust coming through, black front bumper (rest of car is midnight blue), no front indicators.

swaps ?

Sorry, its a little older then i would have hoped. Anything from 1994ish and up is what im after. Willing to put cash on topif necessary.

I was joking lol wouldn't believe it I just drove it and it broke down from no fuel and now it won't start coz my oil leak was that bad that when it stopped all the oil leaked out lol and the battery died from cranking. Reliable cars those hondas

Plus spending money on a car is the equivalent to pissing it away in a pokie. Ya dont get any of it back.

The only way it'll appreciate in value is if you sell it with a full tank of gas.

Actually Matt... the NA ones sell for more because so many P platers want them how do i know this because i researched it all and all the ones that were in some what decent condition were goingfor 8-10k so you are wrong buddy.
