Its $5800, dont you guys think this is a steel? I think im gonne pick it up, just wanted some opinions.

Most of those 'mods' can be done fairly cheaply so I don't think it is quite the 'steal' for an SI. Actually, I think it is kinda high for an SI mostly because I don't care for those 'mods'.

not a good deal i bought my 93 Si about 4 years ago. with about the same mods and i payed $5000 then. agreat deal would be $4000 or less check kbb.com for the kelly blue book value that will tell you alot about value.

Hrm, from the pictures it looks like there is a FMIC underneath the bumper. I just quickly glanced at a few pics, didnt see the engine. If this sol is turbo-charged, i would definetly get that checked out before you buy it. If they are using crappy fuel management or the welds are done sloppy, or if its one of those SSauto whatever kit off ebay,than I would have to say its not worth putting even more money into it to fix it. Turbo aside, it looks pretty good to me. 5800 is a lil' bit steep, but the sol geo posted earlier from a dealership was like 6100 or something with more miles on it.

*Edit* Nevermind about the turbo part, I looked at the rest of the pics and re-read your post. Just a lil confused about the intercooler. sigh*

but this is an SI we are talking about. their like a dime a dozen. You cant find a VTEC any where because they sell to fast. VTEC are also worth alot more money.

Im sorry to burst your happy bubble but that car is no way near 8500. I believe that car is roughly 5k maybe 6K. What I see is maybe around 1200 dollars in parts.
If You were to look at all those parts you would be able to see that they are nothing that cant be found on EBAY for real cheap. maybe he is trying to get his money out of his paint job.
Sorry but this is my opinion.

Yeah it really seems like it, those rims are about the best thing on it besides that paint job. Those subs in the back are 20 bucks a peice hhaha, that amp about 60 and those mids are about 50. I checked online with all the brand names and stuff, and i think the dude wants too much. I might just end up keep on searching for a VTEC sol the one with the 160 hp engine, but then again i found a sweet legal 1990 nissan skyline for 11,500 canadian money with 68k miles.

geez...everything about that car i just despize. That right there is probably an example of as clean as a rice-mobile will ever get. I dont mean to knock on it but seeing the half azzed modds done to the car, doesn't it make you question wtf the owner could have done that you CANT obviously see??? By a BONE STOCK car and then modd it. Its always cheaper and funner in the long run. Its not like the modds on that sol were things you couldn't get off of ebay for $50 or less(other than the rims but i dont even know what they are).

NICE SOL, YOU GUYS OUT THERE JUST DON'T KNOW THAT YOU OWN ONE OF THE RAREST HONDA-THE DEL SOL AND IT WORTH MUCH MORE THEN YOU THINK. I PERSONALLY OWN A '95 RARE ISLE GREEN VTEC del Sol and I think the price for this sol is pretty reasonable! I mean the guy would probably sell for 5600 or even 5500. Mods arent' that great but del sol "fans" you don't buy a del sol because of the nice speakers-DO YOU? CAR LOOKS AND CLEAN AND WILL DEFINATLY GET THE LOOKS W/NEW PAINT JOB

[b]"My, my that car looks very familiar, is that Mike's old car? And your trying to sell it too?"

Yes it is, I fixed the car in and out! Contacted Mike and bought his steering wheel, also great thank you for Mike for making me that custom shift knob. No, I am not trying to sell the car yet but If I get reasonable offers....Maybe?

P.S If you want me to list the upgrades and what's been done to this one of a kind "unique" Sol by myself, let me know.

Yugos and Pintos are very 'rare' now too. I'm still not rushing out to pick one up for six grand. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

del sols...just like anything else in this world...are essentially worth what the eye of the beholder believes it's worth. del sols are 10 year old cars give or take a few years. And they started out at what...$19k??? if you can find me a car that started at that price or was what it went for at its time and go 10 years down the line and still be worth 5k or 6k i'll give you the benifit of the doubt. and when i mean worth, i mean by kelly blue book. Just think of it like this, if i have a mint and freshly cut one dollar bill and said i will give this to you for your crinkled old almost torn $20 bill...would you do it??? NO!yes del sols are somewhat rare, do you go a whole week without realistically not seeing one??? maybe, but i highly doubt it. Del sols aren't a true rare car. i mean there are cars out there where only say 5,000 were made and distributed around the states...and guess what...those go for millions.

anyway, when you have a modded car, the sole purpose of having one is because you want it to be sportier than stock and you want it to be something of YOUR taste and desire...not someone else's trash/work. which is why i suggested in getting a sol that was bone stock.

ok i'm done [img]cool.gif[/img]

hahahaha good shit

It might feel special to you but to someone else all that stuff could be a massive turn off. It is only worth what someone wants to pay for it. Even if it is a VTEC model or not some times putting mods on a car DECREASES the appeal to the masses and makes it less desired. Im just saying that THIS car in itself looks to me like a budget FIX-N-dumb that I would never buy if it was the last Del sol on the planet.

i think mods are the only thing that makes sol! plus the dohc vtec engine! and that roof! and it's size! and some nice wheels! and who drives it!

"THIS car in itself looks to me like a budget FIX-N-dumb that I would never buy if it was the last Del sol on the planet"
[b] If it was the last del sol on the planet, I am pretty sure You couldn't afford it!

vadi your profile is corrupt. You may want to fix that.
