Possible project car Question
I found a 91 CRX DX (I think) from a guy who "imported" it from Arizona to Ohio. It has no rust on it which is VERY rare in Ohio
 Only 115k miles on it and a few nifty extras like Si steering wheel, integ shift knob, '14" Integra Wheels', and exhaust. He says it needs a front bumper, hood, and corner lights. I asked him if it was wrecked and he said it didn't appear to be. I'm thinking its an unfinished project  I'm trying to get more info about that story. It has a clean title. Oh and its currently primered black so it def needs a paint job. I'm thinking its a good candidate for a project. Question is, how much should I pay. I'm thinking most definatly under 1g since it needs all that shit and a paint job. What do you all think? Thanks

tell him 750, and dont budge
oh btw, check to see what state the car's title is in, if it is already registered in Ohio with a "clean title" then most definitely the signs point to a crash in its past but def dont give him more then 750

find someone with carfax or go check out www.carfax.com and run a history check. i don't trust anyone who says it has a clean title. i once got a 4th gen from a car lot and they claimed it had a clean title. got the title in the mail and it had a total
 i would say $500 since it needs hood & front bumper. if the corner(s) were busted then you might need headlight(s) too (check mounting brackets) project cars RULE :ylsuper

Ok, got an e-mail back from the guy about the price.
Lets recap: Needs - hood, front bumper, corner lights Possible wreck? Primered black = needs new paintjob Dx model = not Si Are you ready for this? $2500  I couldn't believe it. There is no way I would pay that much for a possible wrecked car that needs those parts. Thanks for all your help! Hopefully I'll find a nice rex sooner or later.

just to help you judge I just bought a project car (90 CRX HF) that has Tokico shocks, Skunk2 coilovers, a Momo sterring wheel, clear corners and a Act Stage 1 clutch for $1000.. it's fairly rusty, has been wrecked (fixed now) and needs paint.. the interior is in decent shape and actually has Si seats in it. Hope I helped some. But I'd say that price is AT LEAST $800 too high.
