It depends on what you're using the car for.

Daily Driver - you're gonna have a time looking for overall parts when it needs them. Fortunately it doesn't require parts on a regular basis and most of the parts are a mix and match of other Honda parts. If you have the time and patience, you'll get through. You'll become great friends with Hamilton too Smile

Project ride - The possiblities are endless.

All in all it's a great car...reliable and all that. Maintenance is easy enough. If you have the B20 engine, it consumes oil but not enough to be a major issue unless you push the expectations of the car. Engine swap time....you can go anyway as people in the US and Australia love to make swap in power with this chassis model.

Hope that helps.

The neons, headlight conversion, and the bodykit....all that is rice boss. Rice is any modifications that don't contribute to the performance of the car.

Nonetheless yuh sounding like you real like the car and I don't see why you shouldn't buy it if the price is right.

Them 18" rims though...might do more harm than good as most likely the engine isn't producing enough HP to push them. They'll be straining your car's suspension and drivetrain (correct me if wrong) instead which would lead to your velocity joints and such wearing out. Just a thought...
