well im a big fan of BMW and i drive one at the moment, i love em but my car is falling apart and i need a new car. well one of my brothers friends is selling his 1999 honda civic EX now its not a typical EX, he dropped a JDM SI motor and trans into it and added a few other doodads in it, and this is the info i have so far...

1999 Honda Civic EX Coupe
5spd MT, Black/Gray
~50,000 miles
clean title, 2nd owner
body is straight, paint is fair
slightly modified
kbb: ~$8,000
asking: $5,000

i can handle the price but what do you guys think about this deal? im not a honda guy but i know a bit aobut them. what do you guys think about the pros and cons of this?

thanks

As long as it's running strong, it sound like a deal to me. The only thing I would be worried about would be emissions. JDM engine in a car in Cali; heard it's quite the pain in ass.

well he's had it for a while so i dont know if it is against the law but i dunno...

Where are you from. My friend is looking for a car right now. Both of us live in DFW TX.
