what I got for 400 bucks

Post by **Cookdaddy** » Mon Aug 09, 2004 10:33 am

A 92 5-speed SE coupe, body in perfect condition, just needs new motor. Thats right, I found a gunmetal 5-speed coupe for 400 bucks. It was sitting in the back of this shop around Louisville and I drove by and got a quick glance at it and decided to find out whats up with it. So I go in and ask about it, no one even knows its back there, turns out, it's a customers and it's been sitting back there for over a month. The timing chain broke and she doesnt want anything to do with it, actually, they havent been able to contact her in over a month. So I ask for her number, call her, and get ahold of her on the first ring. I ask her if she would be willing to sell it, she said yes, and I told her I would give her 400 bucks for it. She sounded like she was excited to get it for even that much, and she ends up telling me she could care less what happens to the car. So in two days, I'll be going to get my new s13 coupe, in perfect condition, for the low low price of 400 bucks. Then, the SR goes in. All I have to do is find someone to buy my s14. Anyway, sorry if this is long, just had to share with everyone on my find.

There is no rust at all on this car. I was so damn surprised that it was in good of shape as it is. It's in better shape than my s14!! Pics will be up in a few days, after a nice wash.

Great deal. post up some pics of it when you get it home

Post by **wangless** » Mon Aug 09, 2004 10:33 am

why couldnt i find one for that price after my first 240 was stolen. after that happened and i was looking for a replacement 240 all i saw was, "perfect SR project" $2000 for non running WTF ?!

anyways, congrats on the find. just had to vent a little

Post by **ph34r** » Mon Aug 09, 2004 10:33 am

nice deal. i got my 91 hatch for 650. a litile banged up, but it runs.

Post by **ZeroS13** » Mon Aug 09, 2004 10:33 am

Awesome deal! Around here, too many people are over inflating prices. Sucks cuz all I want is a coupe like yours for cheap.

Good luck with your project!
