OK, so i check the local newspaper yesterday, and there is a 1991 Civic CX for sale. Certified, rust-proofed yearly, overall great shape. 185,000km on it, he's asking $3900Cdn. It is rare to see a fourth gen for sale in our area. So today I call the guy up, and it's already sold. For the price he wanted. He said it sold literally hours after the newspaper came out. And that the phone has been off the hook ever since. SO, I have been thinking. My 89 DX, with about 80,000KM on it, great body shape, overall great shape... Must be able to pull in atleast $4500+Cdn.
I have been looking through the Auto-trader, and I see fourthgens around $6000, that are lowered, engine swaps, all the cool shit... I have been wondering if maybe, I should sell mine, and pick one up that's already fixed up. Would be a good way to save TIME and MONEY, yes?
ANyways, what do u think i should do? Yes i realise that I'm lucky to have an 89 with only 80,000kms, but i dunno... thanks for reading my long story.

heres obviously the only thing you should do :
- Get a loan, buy CRX or whatever it is thats rare and peepz are crazy for for bout 3,000 dollars U.S ... take it back to Canada.
- sell it in the papers for alot more to make profit, pay off loan, and get some $$
- Repeat cycle til' filthy rich !! :D
--- thats jus my 2 cents.. BUT it could be your 1,000,000 ~!!! lol

IMO , i think its better to buy a stock car then mod it yourself coz u know that it has all been done correctly and not lashed up , but its down to you at the end of the day ;)
