DOHCVTEC190

Just testing waters to see what I could get for my car. Anyways, the car has nothing but been good to me. I think I’m just ready to move on to something that I can just drive, instead of a toy that I can play with like the Prelude.

I am the third owner of this vehicle. It was first purchased in Oklahoma. Then a guy bought it and brought it to Farmington, AR. I found this guy in the paper and bought it from him. I bought the car all stock with 95,000 miles on it and now it has right around 140,000 miles.

This car has been meticulously maintained for what it is. It has never been in an accident. The oil has been changed every 3000-3500 miles with Mobil 1 Extended Performance 10w30 and a Honda or Wix Oil Filter. The transmission is pretty fresh with probably 10,000 miles on the Honda MTF.

Here’s a list of the specifications:
All parts and maintenance were done by me and/or my father using a Helm’s Service Manual and proper torque specs. I have a whole folder full of receipts for parts bought for this car including all the bolt-ons and even the factory clips and screws I ended up buying. I have a lot of stock parts to throw in also if wanted: headlights/corner lenses, bumper lenses, intake, header, wheels, and suspension.

The only negatives about the car would be that it has a few dings and scratches as would any car of its age and the clearcoat on the carbon fiber hood is faded. Also, it would benefit from a better map on the uberdata or crome as it takes two starts to start the car.
Exterior, I would give a 7 or 8 out of 10 for the dents, scratches, and faded hood. Interior is perfect; no tears in the seats or anything. Motor and mechanical would get a 9/10.

Here’s the most recent picture of her:



And I guess a few in her prime?

Lucke

please don't take this the wrong way, but you won't get anywhere close to what you're wanting for it...

modded cars just don't sell that well.

And having nitrous is going to be something that keeps people away from the car.

Realistically, you could probably get about $5000-7000 for the car depending on the demand for it in your area. You could also get the same amount probably for a stock one too...so I'd definitely part out the car before selling it to maximize your profit.

Don't sell it, it's to clean!

Honestly, I think you could get 5-6k for it though.

Also, If you do part out the car, can I get the Header?

I say if you keep the cosmetics the way it is, and just put the stock bolt ons back on and sell off the aftermarket ones... you'd prob generate way more interest by just those few things alone imo. So you'll be able to cash in on the part outs and perhaps generate more for a more stock ride hehe. Clean though. Not feeling the nawsss though

i think you can get more like 7k strictly because you have keep it clean and not riced it out. But the price you want will depend on the people interested... like you mentioned looking for a kid or car enthusist that is were you will find people willing to pay
